I think Dontebell is trying to say "what are the best movies based on books/novels?"

I could be wrong, though. :ohwell:

I think Lord of the Rings is a pretty damn impressive adaption.

I would have to say Lord of the Rings too. But I love Harry Potter as well. And I don't know about TMNT but it is a comic book so if that counts then that as well! GO NINJA GO NINJA GO!

Lord of the Rings is by far the best. Jurassic Park is also good.

I love Harry Potter as well. !I hate the Harry Potter movies. I could make a really long post and go into why but I'll hold back, too tired.

Raphael, I gotta ask, who's that in your avatar?

Yellowcard. New band I just got into and they are wicked. Thanks to The Hobbit of the boards! Thanks man! Check some songs out! I personally like: Breathing, Ocean Avenue, Life of a Salesman. Those are my favourite but I like a lot more.

:nod: SSX 3 is a sweet game(one of my Favourites), YellowCard is a pretty good band too.... But back on the Subject, ummm I would definatley say Lord of the Rings... just cause I don't read much and the about the sweetest movie I've seen in a while that has some half-decent character plots. RETURN OF THE KING WILL ROCK!

On Her Majecty's Secret Service, one of the only Bond films that remains true to the Fleming novels.

I quite liked Minority Report and Blade Runner but they're not really adaptations as such (oh and 'Adaptation' was sort of an adaptation..but it sucked anyway)

LOTR is always gonna be the best tho and after I've finished Catch 22 I'll watch the film too

They need to make a movie out of The Long Walk by Stephen King.

Jack Horner? *checks her copy* Mine says Robert T. Bakker. Unless we're talking about different books.

I agree it would make a cool movie.

The best... hummm... The Silence of the Lambs series was really, REALLY good; the best in fact. But LOTR is a close second...


The worst would have to be John Carpenters: Vampires. The book was great (honestly, it was), the movie was the biggest piece of suck ass that I have ever had the displeasure to see. Period.

I just came across the Vampire$ book. I'm thinking it's more based on money than actual vampires? As opposed to the movie?

I read a book called "Blood Work" a few years ago that was pretty good. Then they made it into a movie with Clint Eastwood and messed it up by changing the ending.

The Star Wars books are pretty good, but what comes first, the movie or the book, or both at about the same time?

The movies came way first.
