QUOTE (CRMSON @ Dec 14 2005, 11:04 PM) i think the only exception to how a movie can never be better than the book..is lord of the rings...every time i pick up one of the LOTR books i would ALWAYS fall asleep afterwards....it was just wayyy to descriptive and confusing....BUT...i think everyone would agree with me that the LOTR movies were amazing
But they actually removed lots of parts of the book to make the movie. Unless you want to end up with a 10 hour film, there is usally no other choice but to skip parts of a book when transforming it in a movie.
Just dont try to compare a movie to its book. I always try to see both of these as different things. Otherwise, you will always be dissapointed.
