Good book

Suzanne Collins' novel The Hunger Games will be in theaters soon. It is a great book and should be a great movie. What other books that you have read should be made into movies? Why? Who do you visualize starring in the movie?

I think that Mortal Instruments should be made into a movie becasue I think that It would be a way for other people to read it, als the Infernal Devices because I think it will give people a feel on how it was like to live during taht age in England. Another book is Divergent because I think that It will give us an Idea on how what it is like to see a different government and see what it would look like if we went by it. I've also read Eon and Eona and I think that those should be turned into a movie because I think that It would give a feel on how what it was like in Ancient China and witness a differnt culture. I've read so many books that I think that should be turned into movies, so I just list some of the them and I think many more books should be turned into movies.

Who I visualize during the movie is anyone as long as the guy who plays Jace is good looking as well as Simon.

As much as I HATE book, I think The Mysterious Benedict Society should be made into a movie. The reading assignment was to read at least 300 pages so I tried just reading one big book. I don't know why, but I liked it. It has a mystery in it and I could about imagine everything that would happen. I don't know who I would want to star in it. I just am hoping that I can see it in a movie. That way I can look back to what I read and see all the parts that I skimmed through while reading it. I just like outdoors and mysteries so I guess this is the book for me.

I think the book "How Lucky You Can Be," should be made into a movie. This book is a true story about former NSU Men's Basketball Coach Don Meyer, and about his terrific tragedy he has overcome and his inspirational story about God, Family, and Coaching. They have always talked about making the book into a movie, but it has yet come to life. I would like it to become a movie, because it teaches a great life lesson about Don Meyer being in a terrific car accident and losing his leg, but never gave up and his next basketball season after the accident, becoming college basketball’s winningest coach. I could see myself playing Don’s wife Carmen, from her getting the call, to never giving up and believing in God.

I honestly don't think any books should be made into a movie. When you read the books and then see the movies, it kind of ruins it the way you see it. Sometimes the movie doesn't follow the book and people aren't happy about it, and sometimes I'm one of them. I also can't choose anybody starring in books I read. I see people in my head, but I can't describe them and so I can't see someone casting in a book. I enjoy reading a book and seeing what I want to see. When the movies don't get it right, it's just not the same. I feel better with my own thoughts.

I am certain that the book "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" will be a terrific movie. They are currently filming it, and it will be in theatres sometime in 2012. I am ecstatic that the author is actually directing the movie because I know it will be just as beautiful as the book is. I did not picture Emma Watson portraying, Sam. I had thought that someone a little plainer should play her, but I am not doubting her ability to act. I had imagined the main character, Charlie, to be just a bit nerdier. I will absolutely be the first in line to see this movie.

As much as I dilike reading, I would have to say one of my favorite books is Flowers for Algernon. It is already made into a movie, but I have not seen it yet. I am actually debating on whether or not I want to. Sometimes, the movie version of really good books suck. I would be extremely disappointed if I watched the movie and it completely changed my outlook on the book. Some movies give me an entire different impression, and I don't want my thoughts on the book changed.
