Weekly Geeks 2009-27: Best movie adaptations
Saturday, July 18, 2009

With the release of Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince this past week, I thought it would be good to turn once again to movie adaptations. In March, with the release of Watchmen (using that as a jumping off point for discussion), I brought up the subject of worst movie adaptations. This time, I'd like to bring up best movie adaptations (not saying if the recent Harry Potter movie is or isn't faithful to the book since I'll be honest I haven't read the book, but using the subject as a jumping off point for discussion).
So what are some of your favorite movie adaptations of books? Include trailers or scenes from Youtube if you'd like.
Also along with that question, or instead of that question, what book or series would you like to see be made into a movie or movies? Tell us why you think it or they would work as a movie. If the book already has a book trailer, include that, to help make your point.

ALWAYS a fun topic! Should generate lots of great discussion.
I hope so. Last time I mentioned worst movie adaptations, that went over like a lead balloon. :(
Yay, this was an easy one for me! I'll post here and on Mr. Linky...just in case!
