I usually like to see movies based on books or based on something( like comic or true story, etc.). Here are some movies I like to check out sometime:
1. The Lincoln Lawyer based on a novel by Michael Connelly (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eee4rLnCOq8)
2. Diary of a wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules by Zachary Gordon
3. Water for elephants by Sara Gruen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6b2XhXkPpg)
4. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II by J.K. Rowling (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EC2tmFVNNE)
5. Cowboys and Aliens( based on a graphic novel) by Scott Rosenberg (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zH7KZD5vGBY)
6. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
7. Hugo Cabret ( based on the novel: The inventions of Hugo Cabret) by Brian Selznick
I hope more novels would be made into movies so that movie watchers would then check out the books. It would be fun to see what the movie added and did not add from the book( although they shouldn't be compared since they re different mediums). Just love book adaptations more so than what is currently out there. So that' s that, have a good rest of the day. Ciao!
