I think it's one of the few book to movie adaptations where I actually liked the movie more than the book.

The Lord of the Rings films were really good. I didn't like the Hobbit so much though. I am really getting excited about Ender's Game. I hope that is good. The trailer looks like they might do some of the scenes justice. I am also excited to see World War Z... love that book. Looks like I got off topic talking about future movies!!! :)<br /><br />Angie<br /><br /><a href="http://angelasanxiouslife.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Angela's Anxious Life</a>Angela's Anxious Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01935144213302758223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-50313983246612963712013-05-17T22:28:45.209-04:002013-05-17T22:28:45.209-04:00Easy: Blade Runner based on Philip K.

It's always nice to find out that your favourite book has not been absolutely butchered by a bad movie adaptation.

Emma Watson was brilliant, and the cinematography when Charlie broke down brought me to tears. Excellent adaption. Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09536428856341691610noreply@blogger.com
