Book turned into a movie and completely desecrated
I really had to think hard on this one. I know what I've heard about the City of Bones movie, but I can't really talk about it as I didn't read that series or watch the movie..if that says anything. I can think of a movie that I LOVED whereas I didn't really care that much for the book.. Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion. I couldn't hardly stand the book, but I really thought the movie was funny! However, that's not my question, so..I digress....
The only one that I can come up with at this point in time is Beautiful Creatures. I guess the thing about that movie was I was upset that they made two of the characters the same person in the movie. That was frustrating. As the series goes on, those characters have more of a role in the books, so how they are going to pull that off is just beyond me. All in all the acting was mediocre at best. I expected a little more, but I may have expected too much. I don't expect they will be coming out with movie two any time soon.
I wish I really had more to say on this topic. I'm not really too passionate about books that are turned into movies. I tend to find good in both or have the glass is half full mentality! What about you? Are you passionate about movies desecrating your favorite books?? Which ones and why???
