Q: Are there any books to movie adaptations where you think the movie is better than the book?
Many in my opinion. But the one that reaches me the most is The Shinning by Stanley Kubrick/ Stephen King. The plot circled around madness more than the supernatural, which made it scarier for me, since cabin fever is not that far fetched. Especially with the overcrowded thanksgiving reunions lurking about.
I've never read or seen The Shinning but I have heard that said before. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen or read The Shining either, but maybe I will someday! (:

Hopping through. I have never read Stephen King or seen any of his movies. Some day.

I think The Lord of the Rings movies are a great adaptation of the books.. :)

Nice! Surprisingly this one was harder for me. True I had an answer ready, but after a lot of thought, I still find myself enjoying the book better than the movie!

I haven't read of watched The Shining. Steven King's books tend to freak me out. New follower on Twitter. My FF
ReplyDeleteI loved the movie but haven't read the book so can't say whether it was better. Good pick. Old follower. My F&FF.
