Books That Should Be Adapted To Movies

My very own Soror CT4 could make her book, Freshman Focus into a movie.

I have been saying for years that I Am Legend by Richard Matheson needed an updated version. Now, in December of this year, they are releasing a new version starring Will Smith no less.

I am really waiting for them to make one of Laurell K. Hamilton's novels into a movie.

I'm glad I Am Legend is being adapted.

I think Arnold Schwarzenegger was suppose to start in a version somewhere in the 1990's.

^^^That would have been interesting. I like Will Smith though; he kind of turns the premise of the book on its ear a bit.

i read this years ago and it immediately made my top ten book list...i love it! i had originally heard that it was going to be made into a movie with Reese Witherspoon playing the lead...that was 2 years ago so i dont know if it was true or not...

I read The Giver for the first time when I was 7, and it went waaaaaaay over my head (looking back, what was I doing reading such a deep story in 2nd grade???).
But it was in the car on a family road trip and I finally picked it up again when I was in undergrad. Shoot, I was crying by the end of it!! It is so good! I can't believe it's taken so long to get a movie underway. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0435651/)

My only concern is that it is the type of book that can easily be Disney-fied and turned cheesy. Let's hope not *Crossing my fingers*.
