Lenny I actually read the book about two years after I watched the movie but I recently watched it again and I personally think the book-movie adaptation wasn't all that bad (maybe I was just a bit distracted bij John but still.. :$)
The movie actually made me read the books and it now is one of my favourite series. (Actually finished re-reading the fall of five yesterday, so much hate for that douchebag five ;( ).
I still hope there will be a movie for the power of six but I highly doubt it after so many years.
(Anybody knows what other movies the actor of John plays in *tries not to drool*)

I also can't wait for book #5 since I discovered this series is planned to be 7 books (*small happy dance*)and the fall of five stoped so clifhanger-like.
Does anybody have any information about that? I'm starting to get desperate.

Please react what you guys want to see in the remanig 3 books of the lorien legacies series, I'd love to read your toughts and keep the discussion going ;)

Byee

Lenny yeah it would be nice wouldn't it :P


Samantha I know, but I think that if they remake it with new actors and all it would be a total hit because of the fan base now instead of back then.


message 105: by Lenny (new) - rated it 5 stars

Lenny That makes sense but I'd hate having to adapt to new actors. Because I had seen the movie first the actors faces are the faces I imagine whil reading (John, Henri, Sarah, Six, Sam, Mark (altough he's confusing because he's also Luke in the Percy Jackson series)).

Are you kidding that movie was awesome!
The actors played their parts so well, I DEMAND A SECOND MOVIE!
That was very well made I think they did an awesome job!

Neha Umm..i think that's not true...otherwise we would've known something else about the movie..the new actors at the very least.


message 111: by Lenny (new) - rated it 5 stars

Lenny Hope that is true so bad! But I hope I'm not fangirling over nothing now :0


message 112: by Marie (new)

Marie I still can't believe there will be no movie, they do that a lot to movies, I really hate when they do that if the book has a sequel so should the movie.
it only makes sense...

lol Wait so..you are saying you imagined they look like the actors when reading the book but you watched the movie first? Of course you are going to imagine their faces after seeing the movie first lol Its already imprinted in your mind. When I was reading I thought Sam would be Josh Hutcherson

message 132: by [deleted user] (new)

I am currently working on reading the fourth book in this series. But The Power Of Six was my favorite of the series so far!! I really wish this book would become a movie , judging that the first one was so good !!


message 133: by Lenny (new) - rated it 5 stars

Lenny Yeah I love to see the envoirment Marina lives in in her POV chapters. And I'd love to see how Ella would look :3


Kaleigh They might make another movie but the first movie wasn't very good or popular to a lot of people. So they might not make another movie but there will still be the books:)


Johnathan Nakaahiki That's cause the first wasn't that much like the movie. Duh!


Stephani Leqola I think the movie was great that is why I started reading the book I think they should keep making the books to movies it will be very interesting to see how they turn out

Agreed.


Samantha If they remake the first with a few changes, starting with giving John the fire resistance, he can only shine light from his hands in the movies, also, maybe making Six's hair black, then they could make a Power of Six movie (Six's hair wouldn't really affect it but still I want it to be like it was in the book)


message 139: by Corné (new)

Corné The movie itself wasn`t that bad, but it differed too much from the book. Besides, there were some major holes in the film, and so did rise quite some questions. Especially if you haven't read the book F.e. about the mogodarians. Why did they destroy lorien? I saw the movie with a friend of mine, and she couldn`t even answer this question, while it does matter a lot.

I was somewhat suprised that John told Sam he was an alien (in the movie). if you would see the movie, you wouldnt get the impression that these two guys are quite good friends, and i dont think you`ll tell someone you dont know that good that you`re an alien. However, the fact that alex pettyfer played four did make me very happy

So, if they would film this book, I`d probably not go to see it.

Tane I am Number 4 wasn't a flop, it made just over 100 mill from it's budget, it was a successful movie ... Most sequels are made when the box office scores are good.

If you think this adaptation was one of the worst you haven't truly seen the terrible ones.


message 143: by Juan (new)

Juan Yeah they changed A LOT in the first film. I still remember how the movie ends and its way too ridiculous. The plot of the second film would suffer (in case it happens).

Georgia 'cause the movie was horrid.

In my opinion at least. Sorry if I offended anyone

The fifth book was amazing :D Can't wait for the sixth and final book in the series


message 149: by John (new) - rated it 4 stars

John Smith It's similar to what happend with Percy Jackson's movie adaption. The first kind of failed and even though it could have been ok as a movie on its own(for those who haven't read it), the second(in PJ case)was worse and pretty much a waste. They decided not to take that chance(which is probably the right call) with the Lorien Legacies series.


Johnathan Nakaahiki Exactly John. Especially when Henri dies. They meseed that part up. :'(
