Today’s post is going to be about book to movie adaptations!!! As many of you know, nowadays a lot of books are being turned into movies. And sometimes, we get an awful movie that makes us all go “But…in the book…they ruined it”, but other times, we leave the theater with tears of joy and we end up watching the movie again and again. Today I’m going to be mentioning some of my favorite movies that were based on books.
Here is my list:
Harry Potter
Do I even have to explain this one? I never met anyone who read the harry potter’s books and didn’t like the movies. Sure, they are not perfect (because perfect would mean it included every single detail), but it is very close to perfection. I just…I’ll always love Harry Potter! Always.
Me before you
When I first watched the movie trailer, I immediately read the book right after that and wow, it was epic! And the movie! I couldn’t stop giggling and Β all the emotions that I had while reading the book came back! Such a lovely book to movie adaptation!! And the actors!!!! They are the best actors fit for the roles.
The book thief
I absolutely loved the book and couldn’t wait to see the movie when it was announced to be on screen. And I was not disappointed at all. I have no words at how well-done the movie was. The messages in the book are expressed loud and clear in the movie.
The Hunger Games
The hunger games is a story that I’ll never forget. I loved the books and I loved the movies too (especially the second one).
Divergent
For this one, I only thought that Divergent, the first one only was really good. To be honest, I didn’t like the second and the third one (books or movies). So for this list, it’s only the first movie.
Twilight
Even though there is a lot of hate surrounding this book, I just can’t stop loving it. This saga has kept me entertained for a long time and no one’s opinion is going to change that fact. The movies were so good and made me want to read the books all over again.
The Fault in our stars
I’m not even going to explain why I love this so much. *Cries in a corner*
Mine would be The Best Of Me ππ

I totally agree with all the ones I’ve read/seen! I definitely had some problems with the Harry Potter movies, specifically that they decided to exclude Peeves from the movies (he was so great), but it was such a wonderful adaptation. The cast was fantastic! TFIOS was also a wonderful movie; it was so close to the book! π

Thanks β€ I totally agree with you. I hate it when in the movies, they don't include some characters that were in the books.

My favorites are the Middle-Earth films. At 20+ hours, I think they hold the record for hours committed to an adaptation.
