IT WAS 2002!) <br /><br />I'm going to yell at you on Twitter for not watching HTTYD YET WOMAN LIKE REALLY YOU WILL LOVE IT I KNOW YOU WILLJessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08996840003306047763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3950979514940131182.post-91749973078082146542015-11-12T15:33:11.719-08:002015-11-12T15:33:11.719-08:00Ooh let me know what you think of the Stardust mov...Ooh let me know what you think of the Stardust movie. It was another one that the casting was so perfect for me. And I can't believe Dani thought of THG and I forgot them entirely! Whoops!

I get to Tom Bombadil and quit every time. I liked the first movie, but I felt they REALLY went down hill after that. <br /><br />I did love the Hobbit, but hated all three of the movies. Basically, Peter Jackson can suck it.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11174997031845874289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3950979514940131182.post-31286947120077843932015-11-11T10:22:55.081-08:002015-11-11T10:22:55.081-08:00Neither of you have Lord of the Rings on your list...Neither of you have Lord of the Rings on your list?!?!?!?!?!?!?! That is my number one movie is better than the book adaptation. I had trouble getting through the book but I could watch those movies forever. They really captured the spirit of them. And I stilllll need to see HTTYD and Stardust! I've only seen Princess Bride a couple times and I enjoyed the book, not sure there... LOVE Jurassic Park, haven't read the book yet. Harry Potter I waffle on bc the small but important changes bother me so much. However, I don't think we'll ever get a better adaptation of them. And the casting is perfect. I LOVED The Hunger Games movie after only liking the book, and thought Catching Fire was amazing in both forms. I'm scared for Mockingjay. I also super love Emma (1996) and P&P (2005) for Austen adaptations. ASOIAF books always win but I totally agree with your assessment Jessie. Great list ladies!Morgan @ The Bookish Beaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05455877395068242798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3950979514940131182.post-68584594314750919302015-11-10T15:00:01.945-08:002015-11-10T15:00:01.945-08:00I just finished reading Stardust for the first tim...I just finished reading Stardust for the first time and can't wait to finally see the movie! I'd been waiting to read it first. haha Completely agree with you on GoT.<br />I just watched Mockingjay Part 1 (finally) and really liked it. It was very slow going but the buildup clearly was necessary. I still think they're some seriously fantastic adaptations. Makes me want to do a re-read.. I seem to remember so little.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06465888688348402491noreply@blogger.com
