Movies Based on Books...
With "Jarhead" (based on a book) coming out this weekend it got me thinking...
Are there any movies that you have seen that are based on novels that you liked better than the book?
I was thinking maybe "Jurassic Park"? Maybe a Steven King piece, like "The Shawshank Redemption"? "Band of Brothers" definitely crossed my mind but I dismissed that for being a mini-series and not a movie. Can a case be made for "Lord of the Rings" or "Harry Potter" (I haven't read either)? Wasn't "Apocalypse Now" based on a book? "2001: A Space Odessey"? .....
