Books and movies

Hi! I'm sure you're thinking that you're just wasting your time reading this but I'd like to say something now, seeing as this is my blog and all. Have you noticed how nearly every time you read a book with a good story and the next thing you know it's coming out into a movie and what more, how that single movie can change your perspective of the book almost entirely. Sure some may be good, but others like a few movies that I can name have almost rid you of any respect for the story line. OF course you'd be hyped about seeing the book becoming a movie and all, but maybe just maybe as you sit there, your hand and face covered in the sticky butter coating the popcorn, you start to think "WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO IT?!!!" or maybe it's just me. So anyway, for those who follow the story-line syndrome, I'm sure you really hate it when they do that. Now whatever you do, don't blame the book! Blame the director for cutting the unimportant scenes that heve all but hing on by a thread.
