ITT: Movies that butcher the book
Not even memeing. Movie is fantastic, but doesn't even come close to the book.
As much as i love based Bond, this was garbage compared to book
From what I’ve seen, Lester’s version comes closest, but no movie has done the book justice
>ya can't worship a crocodile!
>NOOOOOO IT DOESN'T STAY FAITHFUL TO THE BOOK MOVIES SHOULD ADHERE TO LITERATURE WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
just go read fiction faggot. it's better for low iq plot point mental midgets like you who don't understand that film is an audiovisual medium.
That was the point.
That is fiction, though.
>adapting books with no/little plot which are respected solely for their prose
what does the film industry meme by this?
nothing cut was decent or important, just nonsense about Sonny's dick
>literally can't even comprehend that there's a difference between cinema and literature
holy shit there's no hope for you. just stop watching movies retard.
You said fiction, not literature you fucking idiot.
>just go read fiction faggot
>just go read
>read
and you're calling me an idiot kek
adapting comedy books that rely on this is especially awful, almost everything is lost in a douglas adams or terry pratchett adaptation for instance and i think it drives off readers
That wasn't me, by the way. I wouldn't embarrass myself like that.
Don’t forget the parts about Johnny Fontaine too.
Unimportant plot-molasses as well.
>'greatest movie of all time'
>some irrelevant novella by an unrespected genre fiction author
when will Yea Forums admit that film isn't art?
Shut up retard. That's what this thread is about. If you don't like it go to /mlp/
Only reddit and people that think IMDb means anything think Shawshank is art.
>>'greatest movie of all time'
see >>some irrelevant novella by an unrespected genre fiction author
>a film's quality is based on its source material
Why the fuck did Fitzgerald feel the need to include a reference to Lothrop Stoddards book?
either everything is art or nothing is
i wonder why people put so much fucking stock in "art" in the first place like it's some award or makes it "better" to like.
it looks like you could take that 10ft t-rex with a sharp stick
I'm just glad that Sagan never got to see it.
