I never watch movies of books I’ve loved anymore, because I just can’t bear it! I’ve seen too many terrible versions, including Stephen King’s The Stand.
I think I had just been expecting too much: there’s so much that happens in the book, to try to get it all in a film would have made it hours longer than it was. The way it was shot was really beautiful though.
Percy Jackson, The mortal instruments (not a fan of show as well., first season was Ok but second duhhh.. ), divergent, and some parts of Harry potter series
The worst part for me was switching the powers of Emma and Olive. What kind of useless change is that?! Let’s just change one big thing that completely changes the story with no visible reason and pretend like it’s no big deal.
The Girl on the train. the book itself was so-so and is not a favorite but WHY did they have to move the action of the movie to New York?? It’s such a British book damnit
TnT and it makes it even more sad that the movie never did the book any justice, I was hoping for it to slay so that we could all have the whole series adapted I would have killed to That Russian hunk be on screen as a strigoi
Literally started the movie was reciting the dialogue to myself, turned it off after 10 minutes because I just couldn’t do it?? Absolutely nothing was in order of how it was meant to happen. Was way too annoying to watch.
Eragon
Couldn’t agree more!!
the entire divergent series
Percy jackson
Eragon. The dragon DID NOT have feathers! (In the book)
Fifty shades of Grey?
Oh that movie sucked monkey butts!
I haven’t even read the books.

The Book Thief. But my hopes might’ve been too high for it.
Oh I loved that book! You wouldn’t recommend seeing the film then..?
I thought the movie was really good but I haven’t read the book

I think if I had seen the movie before reading the book, I would have liked it a lot.
Circle of friends by Maeve Binchy
Pet Cemetery
City of Ember and How to Eat Fried Worms
But Hoot wasn’t horrible, but not great.
Dark places..the book was way better
I think they did pretty good. I think the casting was off ( I LOVE Theron, but she was not right for the role) but other than that, not too horrible.
Yeah she was soooo wrong for the role..i couldn t past that sorry she ruined for me…don t get me wrong i love theron ..am big fan of hers
I didn’t watch the movie because I thought “Why the hell did they cast Charlize Theron????” lol
The question should be who hasn’t had their favorite book turned into a crappy B movie, am I right?
Percy Jackson, The mortal instruments (not a fan of show as well., first season was Ok but second duhhh.. ), divergent, and some parts of Harry potter series
Odd Thomas. I hope no more movies will be made from the series. It completely destroyed the image in my head. ?
If they do, I refuse to watch them!
Right
Lone Survivor, awesome, heart wrenching book, they turned it into a movie, some parts was exact but most was Hollywood BS.
Percy Jackson, Eragon, and the Shannara series on MTV
Conan, Hercules, The 3 Musketeers, The Scarlet Letter, Remo Williams, and a few more that I cannot remember
harry potter 4 and 6, the rest were fine but i detested those two
Confessions of a Shopaholic!! I honestly could not watch much of the movie as it was SOOOOOOO Different from the book!!!
Maximum Ride
IT, Percy Jackson series,
Omg yes the movie has been blocked from my memory
Blood and Chocolate 🙁
Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.
Yes! Im so disappointed in Tim Burton. I used to love him, but his stuff’s gotten hokey. I had high hopes.

Right?!
Maximum ride. They turned it into the absolute worst movie ever
The hobbit!!!
I forgot about that one (mentally blocked it out, more likely). I didn’t even see the third.
It was a complete fail
I think casting was largely a success, but the rest was a pretty big failboat.
Loved casting!!! thorin and Bilbo, Thanduil and most of the dwarves…. sad that it all went to shit because of corporate greed
Yes! That’s exactly what happened. And I think Peter Jackson had no say in it.
the horse whisperer……hollyweird totatally changed ending
Percy jackson
ERAGON!
Percy Jackson movies were one
The Maze Runner comes to mind, great books horrible movie
Not my favourite series, but the Divergent series.
Gone Girl. Ben Affleck was sleep walking thru the whole movie. Awful.
Yeah that’s what he does! Lol
The Girl on the train. the book itself was so-so and is not a favorite but WHY did they have to move the action of the movie to New York?? It’s such a British book damnit
Battlefield Earth. It set the bar for bad movies, the book was fun.
Terry Pratchett’s “The Color of MAGIC”
My sister’s keeper ruined movies for me!
Also Choke was a great read. The movie was okay but not for someone who read it first.
vampire academy
YES!
Movie was so disappointing
TnT and it makes it even more sad that the movie never did the book any justice, I was hoping for it to slay so that we could all have the whole series adapted I would have killed to That Russian hunk be on screen as a strigoi

Mortal instruments. The movie was shit and show is a mockery
Thank you! I gave the show a go but seriously wtf!? It’s like they’ve never read the books.
Deadass I tried to watch the show but I just couldn’t.
