Both Book Blogger Hop and Follow Friday are weekly features where their respective hosts post a fun question for other readers to answer on their blogs. Then everyone goes blog hopping around the blogosphere to make new friends and discover new blogs. So don't be a Lonely Lucy, hop on over to Friendly Fernando's blog and share your love of reading together!
What book(s) would you like to see turned into a movie?"
Ooh! Well, I'm really excited for The Hunger Games movie, which is coming out next year. That is going to be amazing, especially since Suzanne Collins wrote the script, so I'm confident it will remain faithful to the book. Also, Vampire Academy series has movie rights sold and Divergent is in negotiations. They would make amazing movies. Divergent would be incredible on screen. I'd also love to see Anna and the French Kiss (my review will be posted next week), but at the same time, I don't know if the sheer emotional brilliance of that book could translate to screen. I hate it when movies butcher books.
Ooh! I'm also looking forward to when Beautiful Creatures and Shiver, both have movie rights sold. Okay, I think I'd like to see every book I loved in movie form. Yet when it actually happens, I complain because it's not as good as the book aka Harry Potter. Although Deathly Hallows part 1 did live up to most of my expectations! So-freaking-excited for part 2!

Hopping through. I'm not a big sci fi person, but Academy 7 sounds like something I'd really like.

I feel the exact same way when it comes to books-turning-into-movies. I want them all to turn into movies! lol at least the my favourites but most of them would turn bad :(
ReplyDeleteI'm on the same page with you on the Harry Potter movies. I honestly was surprised on the last movie Part I. It makes me hope that the Part II will also stick with the book.
Have a great weekend! :)
My first blog hop and your suggestions seem to be very popular with other bloggers as well!
ReplyDeleteI want to see The Marble Faun made into a film. Come see why. Happy Blog Hop!

I'm worried about this seinfeld business with Hunger Games, She's not nearly world weary looking enough for Katniss in my eyes.

I love it when YA become movies. Sometimes though, I wish they would give it a little time. Haha. I want to see anything by Sarah Dessen made into a movie.
ReplyDeleteI didn't take part in the hop this week, but be sure to check out my giveaway-it's open internationally--> http://unautrehistoire.blogspot.com/2011/02/my-very-first-give-away.html
Academy 7! I haven't heard of that one... I'll have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteI just finished reading Across the Universe and loved, loved, loved it. I'll post a review of it soon, I'm sure.
I didn't know that Beautiful Creatures had sold movie rights. That's awesome! It is hard to say which books I'll hope to see made into movies, as they tend to get snapped up by Hollywood so quickly!
Hey, you know what would make a great movie... Jenna & Jonah's Fauxmance. I'd love to see that as a film.
A lot of people have been talking about The Hunger Games movie... which I can't wait for!
ReplyDeleteHopping through... Also your newest follower!
Happy reading!
