My problem with screen adaptations of novels is that, in my opinion, they just don't get the story right when they make the movie. And by all means that doesn't mean that is true for everybody, they could be spot on in some peoples minds. But not many people all perseve the book in the same way. I have not once seen a movie based off of a novel that was exactly how I pictured it while I was reading the book. So more often than not, after seeing the movie I get dissapointed at how badly they botched it. Especially since almost everytime knowing that I prolly will be dissapointed, I still get excited hoping that they movie will be awesome, and I am always let down. Which just plain sucks.

So in my opinion, I don't think that they should make adaptations of novels. Just leave them they way they are, they're better as a book.
