Books to the big screen!

[Anna]

There are soooo many books which I have read that are being made into a film. I am very excited to see:

- Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children
- The Girl on the Train

Are there any which you are excited about or do you hate it when they make a film based on a book you have read?

I can't wait to see the last Hunger Games Book as a movie (Mocking Jay part 2) and I also can't wait to see Insurgent and Allegient

I actually forgot about them.

Did you read the books?

I did and I loved them!

I haven't read them, but watched the films.

I have heard of some horror stories when it comes to making films from books. They tend to change things or leave bits out.

Was this the case for the Hunger Games and Divergent Series?

The 5th Wave
The Maze Runner
The Scorch Trials
The Death Cure
The Jungle Book

I'm not too happy about them making The Death Cure, because they pretty much butchered The Scorch Trials. But The Jungle Book looked pretty good! I just watched the Disney animated version. I'm going to see The Fifth Wave on Friday I believe.

I forgot about Maze Runner! When does the next one come out?

They are also redoing the BFG which looks pretty cool.

I think 2017? Let me look it up real quick.

September 19, 2017 for me. Could be different where you live.

I think it would be a few days after.

Ages away!
