“It was the single best book-to-movie adaptation I have ever seen and I will die on that hill. I feel like most of the really, truly good adaptations are just the ones where they actually work with and listen to the original writer. So often I’ve seen an awful adaptation and then found out they basically told the actual creator to kick rocks.”.

...and bombs. The Walmart near here has about 50 copies of the little mermaid in it's own display stand and in nearly two months of my walking past it, it's never been missing one. XD

And, Disney will never cease and desist. They'll just double-down on the senseless 'woke-ism' until they go bankrupt. The rabid Left have never been accused of possessing high intelligence.

#11 For the most part I liked the movies, even if they changed a few things that only fans who read the books would notice, such as: no Tom Bombadil; or that Glorfindel took the wounded Frodo to Rivendell, not Arwen; or the affects of Ent draught on Merry and Pippin. But it was the ending that the director did not like and chose to rewrite that was the real sour note for me.
Does not mean I will not watch any of the three movies if I stumble across them while channel surfing.

#17 No. It is not. To start off the narrator is called Joe in the book, and Jack in the movie. The first time Tyler and Jack/Joe meet in the movie is on an airplane, and in the book it's on a beach. Chloe has a much bigger part in the book. Marla's mother is never mentioned in the movie. In the book, the countdown is a much bigger theme. In the movie, Jack/Joe never kills his boss. Jack/Joe almost got his b@lls cut off in a bus in the book, not in a policestation. The book ends with the bombs not going off, the movie ends with bombs going off. In the movie it is never revealed that the real target of the bombing is the museum, and Jack never says 'This is our world now, and all those ancient people are dead'.
