The hunger games are the exception to the rule where the movie compliments the book very well. That’s my only one!

Holes is probably the best book to movie adaptation I’ve ever seen

i strongly believe that a lot of fantasy/sci-fi book to movie adaptations would work soooo much better if they just animated them 😭

The only instance I can think of right off the top of my head where the movie was actually better than the book is The Bridges of Madison County.

We have a rule in our house that if you want to watch the movie/show you have to read the book first [Innocent]

A book can ruin a movie for me but a movie can never ruin a book for me

And it is that serious when the movie 100% isn’t accurate to the book.

I tried watching off campus after reading all the books and I literally couldn't get through the first episode. so much was wrong. I just couldn't.

There’s been a few instances where the movies/shows were better but overall books are better because of character building and development.

it's very rare when the movie is better or comparable to the book.

its because books have a million times more space for scenes, development, substance, etc. If the movie was made exactly like the book, itd be 5+ hours long.😭

That's why I believe books to TV series are better for the audience than books to movies (as long as they stick to the material)

The book gives you so much more context most of the time. You get the thoughts and emotions that some actors just cannot convey well enough.

Movie studios that want to adapt extremely successful books will think, "hmmm...I know people LOVE this book and its hugely popular, but what if I totally change it? That should work!" Then later, "why did the movie flop? It was such a popular book"

I want justice for Eragon. The book was so good and had no business being adapted into a movie. And the movie was garbage.

I love watching a movie first THEN reading the book. that way it feels like im behind the scenes, getting a more in depth experience
