| What's on your list? Fried Green Tomatoes Crazy in Alabama The Bat Psycho Jaws Matilda (though in the book it was funny when she hid a parrot in the house and convinced her parents the place was haunted) Murder, She Said (based on Agatha Christie's 4:50 to Paddington) Carrie Misery Interview with a Vampire (though there are very few differences there) Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (MUCH better than Who Censored Roger Rabbit?) First Blood (Rambo lives, yaaaay!) The Nanny (with Bette Davis  now that's scary) | |

| Being a fairly tough critic of books, I've really not read any book I didn't like the movie of better simply cause I'm one for the movie format more-so than the book format. I did read Matilda and definitely liked the movie better. The version of Oliver Twist I saw was more enjoyable than the book. The Merchant of Venice movie was a bit more enjoyable than the book. | |

| We Were the Mulvaneys was a great movie, but I just can't get into the book. | |
