Oh Man, Jurrasic Park... Do not get me started! Or on Grisham's The Firm for that matter! However, there are a few movies that are done well from books. So far Lord of the Rings is good. They did change some things that I think didn't need to be, but I still loved the film. Crichton's Andromeda Strain, while not a big budget blockbuster, was pretty damn right on with the book. I always love the idea of a book to film project, usually until I see the end result. My solution.... I should be in charge of it!
So if some movie house buys the rights to King's Gunslinger series, PM me...
