Ella Enchanted the Movie. *shudder*
Worst adaptation of book to movie I have ever seen in my entire life. I loved that book SO MUCH, and the movie took everything that was good about the book and threw it into the trash and replaced it with stupid, shallow bullshit ... Argh it makes me angry just thinking about it.

Heh maybe that's what I'll do for the book to movie task, I can go on a nice long rant. Won't that be fun?
