Books and Movies You Hated

[Zandy]

Much like the book group, Books I Loathed, this discussion is about books you hated. For example, I hated Casino Royale, a James Bond Movie. Free to interpretation and subjective opinion!

[Mallory]

Oh, I hated Twilight. Don't kill me.

[Sarah, The Flying Monkey]

Why did u hate twilight? it was awesome!

[Mallory]

I don't feel like arguing right now, but basically, I didn't like what it was telling young girls, and it was poorly written.

[Mallory]

OMJ! A buddy! *hugz*

[Sarah, The Flying Monkey]

i disagree, Twilight was an awesome book.

[Mallory]

Lolz, let's not argue. I'm in a happy mood right now :)

[Mallory]

Lol, I am too. I just don't feel like arguing xP.

[Sarah, The Flying Monkey]

i am not >:(

[Mallory]

NATASHA, I LOVE YOUR PICTURE!!!!!!!!!

[Mallory]

Oh, yeah, I did :) Thankies!! I'm just about ready to change it though xP

TWILIGHT (movie bad, book good. comme si comme sa)
ERAGON (movie horrible, book great. superb)
THE TALE OF DESPERAUX (movie sucked eggs, book amazingly great. bon superb)
and yes, I can put bon before superb.

((english translation:
comme si comme sa - so so
superb - super/great
bon - good))

[Mallory]

I like the movie, The Tale Of Desperaux. I mean, it could've been better, but I thought it was pretty good, especially for a kids movie.

[[deleted user]]

well yeah, for a kids movie it was good. But for someone who read the book, it's almost as disapointing as Eragon, though many liked the movie. That's all just my oppinion though, but yeah, for someone young it would be great for them.

[Mallory]

Yeah :) My little sisters really liked it, so, I think it's all good :D

[Zandy]

I didn't really like the movie Yes Man. It was a good idea, but kinda pointless.
However, the Curious Case of Benjamin Button was wierd, but good and intriguing.
Valkyrie was sad, but really good!

[Mallory]

I haven't seen any of those xP

[Sarah, The Flying Monkey]

the book and movie were awesome!!! how can u not like them?!

[Mallory]

Oh, let's calm down here. We're all entilted to our own opinions here.

[Sarah, The Flying Monkey]

y am i surrounded by twilight haters? :(

[Mallory]

\m/>.<\m/
Don't worry about it.

[Amy]

I want Twilight to DIE. DIE, do you hear me?

and I hated Maximum Ride.

[Olivia, everything in moderation :P]

okey doke, I admit twilight has flaws, but... idk it is interesting....
why did u hate maximum ride? I really like that series! also, I agree that the eragon movie only had much value if you had never read the book. Desperaux was good for a kids movie, but same as eragon.

[jeeves...]

hahaha, marisol... i don't like it either, just cuz i'm a guy, but wow... hahaha :D

eragon ticked meh off though... the book was okay, the movie just wasn't... everything was wrong... especially the leather pants... there is no appropriate place for those clingy nightmare-creators.... >.<

[Olivia, everything in moderation :P]

haha yeah but the book was good.. but then this is the third time we've had this conversation eh monolith ? :P

[jeeves...]

yeah... i didn't even realize you were in this group >.< haha, i was typing when you posted up there, so i missed it... but yeah, like, the books got progressively better, the movie got progressivly worserer...er...

[Olivia, everything in moderation :P]

yeah def. haha I saw zandys comment about casino royale. I read the book, the book was better, although I think daniel craig makes a rather good bond (but not as good as some others) although he is less gadgety

[Zandy]

NO!!!! SEAN CONNERY IS THE ONLY GOOD JAMES BOND!!!

[Olivia, everything in moderation :P]

bleh sean connery is AWESOME but others have done good jobs..

[Zandy]

haha i guess so

[Olivia, everything in moderation :P]

Haha zandy hilarious both on 2 yards away from each other without knowing it

[Stormi (StormReads)]

I found both the book at the movie Twilight to be rather boring. I was excited because of the hype but then was let down when I read it. :(

Same for Inkheart..the book was decent, but the movie oooooh it was so dissapointing after reading the book..if they can make Harry Potter into a two or two and half hour movie..then why not Inkheart, it would have been better and they could have put more details in it and not changed things around! There is one part in the movie, that just made me so mad..did anyone else feel this way?

I did not like Casino Royale or the new one Qauntum of Solace..I just don't like Daniel Craig and can't get into him being Bond..they have changed the bond movies..its sort of like they changed them to fit him or something and well, they are just not the same. :(

[Olivia, everything in moderation :P]

I never saw quantam of solace... yeah I kinda know what u mean.
Also I never saw Inkheart yet I was excited because I read the book... it is a letdown eh? :(

[jeeves...]

aw, maaaaannn.... i was hoping inkheart would be good.... D:
guess i'll have to keep hoping that artemis fowl will break the trend of terrible book-movies... if they ever stinking finish it... :\

[Trish]

Sean Connery is the only good Bond.

I like the Twilight series and the movie wasn't so bad (they tried their best or I'd like to think that).

I didn't like the most recent Hulk movie.

I tried to read The Martian Chronicles, but just didn't enjoy it.

[Zandy]

I agree with everything you said, Molli, but I haven't read the Martian Chronicles.
Stormi: I totally agree with what you said about the new Bond movies!

i was really disappointed that they are making a movie of inkheart... i really really really don't want them to ruin it.. i love the inkheart series..

[Sarah, The Flying Monkey]

[Olivia, everything in moderation :P]

Now, see I liked the new Hulk movie but hated the first one they did because the hulk looked like a blowed up Shrek to me..I thought the newer one was more realistic and Edward Norton was more like the TV series character played by Bill Bisby(sp)

[jeeves...]

that movie's already out... apparently it's not as good as the book... but i talked to my cousin earlier, and he said it was more or less okay, so...

[Kristen]

I haven't seen the Inkheart movie. Was it good?

[Amy]

I want to see it. THe previews look okay.

[Stormi (StormReads)]

If you have read the book, you might not like it. If you have not read the book then you will find it to be a nice entertaining movie.

[jeeves...]

*sigh* i've read the books, but i haven't seen the movie yet.... the commercials looked ok, so i thought it wouldn't be too bad, but book-movies usually seem to be :\

[Sarah, The Flying Monkey]

i didnt really like that book
