O Pioneer’s was a good movie‚ but an even better book. The movie did a good job at getting the point of the story line across‚ but not so much with the character development. I actually finished the book after watching the whole movie so I knew what to expect. I anticipated everything that was going to happen because I wanted to know if it would be the same as the movie. While the plot did not change‚ there were many things that the movie ceased to explain. For explain‚ I would have liked to know

The 1977 version of “A Christmas Carol” by BBC is a very accurate rendition of the book it was based on by Charles Dickens written in 1843.

The short movie mirrored the book in so many ways that only really small details were left out such as Scrooge going to the tavern to get his dinner

The movie adaptation of The Great Gatsby maintained true to the original book by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Although mostly everything seems to stay the same‚ some movie scenes differ. Nick’s character is tweaked and Gatsby’s parties are not the same. The movie also creates more false hope than the novel does. Nick Carraway is the first character introduced into the book and movie‚ but in a different aspect. F. Scott Fitzgerald introduces Nick right away as the narrator. He is giving a monologue about

However‚ due to previous attempts of portraying her works on film‚ I was actually left more skeptical instead (The pilot for the planned television series based off of Delirium was an absolutely disgusting mess).

I like the book more than the movie. Audience reaction has to be taken into consideration in a way that books don’t have to. The audience‚ cannot‚ even for a moment‚ be confused as to who the "bad guy" is. Otherwise‚ you can have a teenage Scarface. "Moral Convenience" is what’s pissing you off.

This is the reason why fantasy-themed works
