ankitaverma19 Many scientific studies have shown that the energy changes around a plant when it is hurt or when it is cared for. We love being around plants especially when we nurture them. It soothes our soul and instinct of providing care.

I love movies. I love books. It is the adaptations that bother me. Especially when a classic/bestseller is adapted into a movie. Da Vinci Code, The Time traveller's wife, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Golden Compass, Animal farm and...

ankitaverma19 As I read your comment I remembered 'The Green Mile'. I saw the movie first and loved it. I thought the book would be great too. Though it was good, it just wasn't as enthralling as the movie. I credit strong editing and casting here. In a very few cases, both...

ankitaverma19 That's an interesting point. The movies do leave little to exercise our minds. Reading gives us more space to flex our imaginations. So where the movie likability may be affected by bad adaptation, it also depends on how closely it managed to reflect our...

ankitaverma19 Hmm.. I guess the authors just aren't as invested in the task of contributing to the movie as they are in writing the book. And yes, time-constraints could be one major factor leading to disappointing adaptations.

ankitaverma19 Yeah, changing the character just changes the story even if its only a minor character. I know its just an adaptation but the basic elements of the story should not be tampered with as much.

ankitaverma19 The time setting change irks me too... Just because it is a classic and stood the test of time, does not mean they should literally change the time period. So many things do not hold up or aren't relevant that the story itself does not provide the impact the...

ankitaverma19 True... it is very hard to replicate the charm a book holds to its readers since the appeal is so subjective. The director/screenwriter should enlist the help of book-lovers or a literary expert to ensure the appeal is not completely lost for the masses.

ankitaverma19 I agree but I still feel they take too many liberties with the creative license at times. They miss important details when they adapt. All I'm saying is that they should take a longer time screen-writing the thing and check and re-check to edit properly. Not...

ankitaverma19 Often the visual effects and real time responses are much more impact-ful in movies. Very true with horror flicks. Those parts tend to drag on in some novels if the writer isn't careful.

ankitaverma19 Yes MissPiggy, I wonder if the movie-makers just bank on the novel's fame when they choose to adapt it. Some novels are not meant to be adapted. Some book-lovers ought to be involved in the process to determine the feasibility of the adaptation.

ankitaverma19 I agree. Some movies actually improve upon the books. Lord of the rings for one. I had a real hard time trying to read that one, what with some characters constantly breaking into songs! Glad they snipped those parts out in the movie :D

ankitaverma19 So true MoonGypsy... These movies just get us excited for nothing. Even if they don't over-promise, just the fact that they are based on a book you like, lets us down when it turns out that they are only loosely adapted!

ankitaverma19 Thanks teo..ya i guess sometimes it works for the movies when they leave it to the moviegoer to fill in the gaps. Still...perhaps a movie series would do more justice to the book :)

ankitaverma19 There are four ways to look at it.. One, perhaps your colleague is so hard up that she can't accomodate another guest. If you are on friendly terms with her, you can try asking her. Maybe she hopes you'll understand since she's already spoken to you about...
