Have you ever read a book and thought that it would be a great movie? List some books that you think will be a great movie...
The Truth About Forever By: Sarah Dessen I love this book and when ever I read it I would picture it in my head as a movie. The Outsiders By:SE Hinton Yes, I know that this already became a movie. But I would love to see or make a modern version of it. I thought of this because I hated the movie because of all the parts it was missing. |

QUOTE(Angelina Taylor @ Jun 27 2006, 5:09 PM)  I think "A Long Way Down" by Nick Hornby would be a pretty cool movie.. I love it. Taylor`` I agree! I would love to see who they would cast for Martin, JJ, Maureen & Jess. Plus High Fidelity and About a Boy were excellent movies in my opinion. Fever Pitch not so much but still.  I would love to see On the Road by Jack Kerouac be made into a movie but at the same time I really, really don't.

I thought Pride & Prejudice was a good movie (the most recent one). I liked Emma as well.

QUOTE(Kristinaa @ May 27 2006, 4:57 PM) Oh my gosh, totally. I love this book so much. Read it 6 times. Another was Stargirl, by Jerry Spinelli (I think). I <3 that book. You rock. Whenever I tell my friends I really like the book Stargirl, they always say to me, "Isn't that a kid's book? I read it a long time ago!" I think it would be an interesting movie, but I can't help but think that if it was, the character Leo would be ruined by some Hollywood pretty boy who is actually 10 years older than the actual character. |

The Notebook was probably the only movie better than the book
Along with A Clockwork orange and all D: |

I would definitely like to see Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot," although not necessarily a screen adaptation since it already is a script. But yeah, it would be interesting but I'm pretty sure it would a total flop as a movie since the plot is nil. Transcendentalism ftw.
