I think that the book is always better than the movie adaptation? Think again! We asked the avid readers in our POPSUGAR Book Club Facebook Group, if you could think of a movie adaptation is better than the book, and had a much of thoughts on the subject!
For some, a favorite childhood film could not compete with the book reading as an adult, as The wizard of Oz, Mary Poppinsor The Princess Bride. For others, the book might have been OK or even good, but the movie was so fantastic that it overshadowed its source material, as The Redemption Of Shawshank or The Godfather. Or it could be as simple as an outstanding film of the casting decisions, intelligent plot change-ups, or over-the-top cinematic visual. Some of these selections, it may even be a little controversial as Crazy Rich Asians, Gone Girland The Hunger Games — but everyone is welcome to their opinion here, and you may even discover that you’re not the only one who prefer certain films to the books that inspired them.
