Movies Based on Books

Bridge to Terabithia (Widescreen Edition)I loved the Disney-produced movie, "Bridge to Terabithia"! Just adored Leslie Burke's fashion sense in the movie. Much like the Newbery Award-winning-book by Katherine Paterson, Leslie's fashion style was rich, imaginative and original. It was sooo fashion forward!
And there seem to be more and more great books being made into movies - J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter" series (can't wait for the new movie and the last book! Sob!), C.S. Lewis's "Chronicles of Narnia", and J.R.R Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, among others. Sometimes, tho, a movie pales in comparison to the book, maybe because imagination can't quite be captured by a screen, no matter how large!
What do you think? Which of your favorite books do you want to be made into a movie?

    I think that Harry Potter is a great series. harry is so brave and always willing to help Herimone and Ron out on any thing. Snape is a teacher that I would hate to have. Do you know what the last book is called? I do. I asked my mom for it and she ordered off the internet for me. I was just planning on saving up my money to get a book when it came out, but I guess not. I think Junie B. Jones should be made into a movie series she does so many funny things. I think you are right it is hard to compare your ideas to the movies.

  2. I think that if it isn't already, the Pirates of the Caribbean should be made into a book,(It's already a movie and I know that.) But I really want it to be made into a book. I love johnny depp and orlando bloom. I can't belive that Pirates of the Caribbean At Worlds End is the last movie!!! It is so sad!!!
