I'll probably catch some heat from purists for saying this, but it's worth noting that I read the full comic series/graphic novel before seeing the movie: Watchmen. Specifically the director's cut. The graphic novel is amazing and thorough and has a ton of significance, and obviously without it the movie would never have existed...but it also has a lot of fat, and a fair number of silly quirks that the movie ironed out of it. The movie's version of the antagonist's plot makes much, much more sense in-universe than the graphic novel version. While yes, the The movie tied it in with the main plot and gave a much more convincing explanation for The graphic novel is amazing, don't get me wrong. I just think the movie did a better job of telling the main story. It didn't help that the "IT'S A METAPHOR" comic-within-a-comic kept popping in and out. The Black Freighter definitely felt extraneous and pulpy, which I guess was part of the point, but it dragged the pace. --- I write Naruto Fanfiction. But I am definitely not a furry. ...

Lol at the LotR nonsense. They did a good job at cinematography and whatnot, but as far as plot/anything else was concerned they were worse. The Princess Bride, The Godfather, and Silence of the Lambs are what I think of when talking about movies better than their book counterparts. --- "A shouted order to do something of dubious morality with an unpredictable outcome?

au_gold posted... Casino Royale Guerrilla Soldier posted... fuck no. sorry but absolutely not. Missed that post. I agree. While CR was pretty good (though a bit overrated IMO), the novel, while not as "exciting" as the movie, is on a different level and I much prefer it to the movie.

American Psycho is my first thought. Christian Bale brings so much to that role. A number of Stephen King novelettes/short stories. Shawshank Redemption, The Mist, Stand by Me (The Body).
