#22: Books into Movies

Dear Editor: I loved “The Battle of the Star Fish” so much, I think it could totally make an awesome movie.  The epic battle scene at the end would be SO EPIC.

Topic: Today we discuss books that have been made into movies, both the good and the bad.  Of course, we only cover movies that we’ve actually seen.

Content Warning: Dude, we cursed! Also used the phrase “black people.” Heh heh heh

Baby Warning: You can totally hear cute baby noises in this episode. :O

Content:

  • Changing stories to fit movies
  • Resident Evil games + movies
  • LOTR and Tom Bombadil
  • Narnia, especially Prince Caspian
  • Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events and Jim Carrey
  • Coraline by Neil Gaiman, additional character
  • Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin - miniseries was epic fail
  • The Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind - again with the random hat
  • The Dark is Rising, by Susan Cooper - super epic fail

OMG we forgot to mention Blade Runner!  The movie sucked.  The book rocked.  Theeeeeeeeeeere you go.
