Ha, books are so much better (as long as you're up for a lot of reading!) - that said, films are pretty tasty. Better than the Harry Potter adaptations...

I got fed up with them after the 3rd book lol, but read them anyway out of a sense of duty, considering they'd been bought for me as presents lol.
and they are making two movies of that one, oh my.. Originally posted by flowerchild[..]
3 was the most interesting imo. 4 and 5 were both just overlong, but 5 was better than 4, because it got some more depth. 6 was really exciting, but then it all got shallow and plain silly in the last book

lol, I was quite amused by the way everyone just died, it was like "what the fuck?" - I don't mean I liked people dying, it was just as if JK Rowling had got stuck for ideas and thought, "ha, I know what I'll do, I'll do what other storytellers do when they're in a rut - I'll kill a few people!"
way to go, jkr. Originally posted by flowerchild[..]
haha, yeah. she was just so out of ideas, it was like a slap in the reader's face.
and the entire ending was just bad fanfiction

Oh yeah, "hey look, everyone's married with lots of children and we're all happy happy and we've called our kids after all the important characters WHO GOT KILLED just a few pages ago."
lol.

Ah cool, sounds interesting. I want to see that Stephen King thing coming out soon, "The Mist" - looked quite cool on the trailer. However, I thought the same thing about "The Happening" but that's apparently a load of bollocks. I keep forgetting about a lot of M. Night Shymalan films, some of them are crap - Signs was good though, I watched The Village recently and thought that was ok and Lady In The Water was surprisingly alright in my opinion, but Shattered? God, talk about wanting to take up self-harm...
