Better Than The Original Vol 2: Books To Movies
In our second volume of "Better Than The Original" we'll cover films that were better than the books they were based on. Considering the fact that it's midnight and I have the swine flu, and also that this topic has very few examples, this list will be a short one.
Borne Identity - After starting to read this book I was amazed it was made into such a suburb trilogy.
Forrest Gump - I only read a little of this book, but that was enough to tell that it didn't compare with the absolutely amazing adaptation.
Golden Compass - The book was pretty good but lacked a single likable character. Although, the movie would have been better if it had followed the books story more closely, particularly where chronology is concerned.
Lord of The Rings - Oh man people are gonna be pissed at me for this.
Pride and Prejudice (LDS Version) - This quirky little film is the only Mormon comedy I can stomach. It's cheesy but endearing and the only version of this story in which Mr. Darcy is likable enough for me to be happy about the ending.
I am Legend - I still don't really know if I think this one was better. They are really so different that they can't be compared, but despite page after page after page of emotional narrative in the book, Will Smith's performance was much more emotionally effective. However, the book is definitely worth the read.
and now...rosebud.
