Professor Peedston Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 hehe i thought tolkien's books were way more entertaining than the two movies so far but i have a habit of enjoying books that everybody else thinks are boring. then again those books were immensely popular for 40 years before they ever made movies so maybe YOU are the ones who are weird. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingcontradiction Posted April 26, 2003 Author Share Posted April 26, 2003 oh yeah The Shining.. Jack Nicholson scared the shit outta me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Symmetrymind Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 Shining is really good. Kubrick's works are always interesting...and so full of the colour orange, have you noticed?! 8) And if we stick to Stephen King's novels, I think that 'The Green Mile' is absolutely better as a movie that as a novel(s)!!

Esnapand Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 Oh the films based on Grisham's books are quite good. I think A Clockwork Orange is a good example for an excellent book-based film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 Why do you people think The Shining was a good movie? I hated it! So many things that were taken out of the book! The mini-series that came out a few years back was WAYYY better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corner Kid Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 The thing about Tolkien was that he was way too verbose for my tastes. Thats one reason why I enjoy the movies more. I also didnt like the Shining. I loved the Green Mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Symmetrymind Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Wasen't 'Cider house rules' adopted from a Ghrisham's book? That was a beautiful movie somehow! Oh, and so was 'The Client' and 'The Rainmaker'! 'A Clockwork orange' :shock: :o ;) :) I loved the cinemaphotography in it...but the story was somewhat ...weird! Nice ending though! 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
