Hi everyone!! Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read!!
I hope everyone is having a great week!! Here is this Friday's question:
Q:What is one book that you would be nervous to see a movie adaptation of because you think the movie could never live up to the book?
A: Ah such a hard question! Of course I love seeing my favorite books become into movies but I think I would be nervous if Anna and The French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins was made into a movie. Anna is of my all time favorite books and I wouldn't want them to cut out my favorite details! Especially scenes with the glorious Etienne and Anna!! That being said I still think Anna and The French Kiss could work as a movie..but it has to be done the right way :)
Other books would include The Book Thief, Shatter Me, Angelfire, and Unearthly!! These books are just too good/I'm nervous about them being changed!!
Well what do you think of my respond? What book would you be nervous to see be made as a movie?? Comment below and leave me some links :D

I haven't read any of those, but I have heard of great things about Anna. It's pretty high on my TBR pile! Old follower!

Completely agree with you about Anna and Shatter Me. For me, I would be worried about casting and lost nuances.

Oh I definitely agree about Unearthly and Angelfire! I love those books to death (especially Will and Christian! -swoons-) x) I haven't read Anna yet but I plan to in the future. :) I just hear so many positive reviews about it!

I think, if done right and they cast the right people, that Anna and the French Kiss could be an adorable rom-com, as well as Lola and the Boy Next Door could be too. And I definitely agree with you about Angefire and Unearthly! :)

Have a nice weekend, Sharon
I've heard so much about this book. I really need to read it so I can understand what everyone is talking about.
ReplyDeleteAnna would be a hard one to do well in a film! I probably wouldn't go see it if it was tbh.

I'm so with you on the Book Thief. I just don't know how they are going to pull it off! That book was so amazing!
ReplyDeleteI think Jeff Bridges is going to be heavily involved in the movie adaptation of it though, so maybe it will turn out ok? I really like his work.
I haven't read Anna and the French Kiss, but I definitely agree with the Book Thief. I don't see how they could turn that into a movie. I'm an old follower. Here's my FF: http://meganm922.blogspot.com/2012/04/feature-and-follow-friday.html
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'd like to see Anna as a movie. The book is great but mostly because of the narrating, and the magic would probably be lost if it was a movie.. :/

I could get behind the idea of Anna and the French Kiss as a movie, if it were well cast...maybe.

You are absolutely right! There is no way this could be a good movie! Only because no one would get the right Etienne! Great pick! New follower!
