I never watched that. Cockatiel of Doom Send a noteboard - 19/12/2010 01:12:19 AM
And sometimes they are horrific.

Ella Enchanted the Movie. *shudder* xx( 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. ><img class=' />

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? O<img class=' />


The previews were enough to convince me that it was a horrible horrible...I don't even want to say "adaptation"..... of a book.

I love that book, too. I actually have the audio book as well, and have had it for years, but I'm afraid to listen to it in case it ruins how I say things in my head. :P
Taking a break from being Ella

I refuse to watch film versions of books if I can help it Larry - 14/12/2010 01:20:21 AM 1383 Views
I generally agree, but sometimes the movies are better than the books. *NM* ranagrande - 14/12/2010 01:27:44 AM 821 Views
Most of my favorite books are unfilmable. *NM* Larry - 14/12/2010 01:40:04 AM 804 Views
Just like Watchmen! *NM* Craig - 14/12/2010 02:46:14 AM 802 Views

Question: Can books count for multiple challenges? *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 14/12/2010 09:34:28 PM 895 Views
Preferably not. But we can be tolerant if you're running out of time. Rebekah - 14/12/2010 09:49:26 PM 1367 Views
But the challenge-books can count towards the 50 and the book you'd been meaning to read. Legolas - 14/12/2010 10:17:12 PM 1360 Views
Re: But the challenge-books can count towards the 50 and the book you'd been meaning to read. Rebekah - 14/12/2010 10:22:06 PM 1419 Views

I liked The Road and No Country For Old Men as well. Jessie - 22/12/2010 06:23:23 PM 1448 Views
Is The Road really a western, though? *NM* Legolas - 22/12/2010 10:30:44 PM 853 Views
true. Not so much, I just always pigeonhole McCarthy as a westernish writer. *NM* Jessie - 25/12/2010 02:20:54 AM 747 Views
Karl May? Legolas - 15/12/2010 07:27:03 PM 1524 Views
