If many books were brought to the screen as it was in the book many movies would last 8-10 hours!
I apologize for venting but I tire very easily of this kind of thing. You would figure that buy now it would get through to some. Bottom line, its a movie, enjoy it for that fact.
Flame on!
I would normally agree with this statement but sometimes the movie is SO much different that you can't even say that it was based off of a book!
That stupid Lemony Snickett movie was like that. It was based off the first three books in that series and they still had stuff in there not from the books! I actually got my money back for that one.
If you're going to base a movie on a book you should at least keep it similar. Otherwise it's something other than what's being 'promised'.
