The Hunger Games is a book that started as a book. I liked the book better than the movie because the book had more details and more better scenes from the movie. I thought the movie was good I liked it because its like looking at a book and it comes to life. I still recommend reading the book but the movie is good also.

One of the movies I saw that started out as a book would be Dolphin Tail. In my opinion the book was a lot better than the movie because the movie didn't include a lot of the details the book did. I think that the book was a lot more touching than the movie it had the very happy parts and the very sad parts. In the movie my favorite part was when they had a carnival and the boys brother and a friend had a relay race when they got to a certain point the brother tagged the dolphin and the friend had no one to tag so he kept going so the brother won! I highly recommend reading the book first then watch the movie. I would do that before any movie. So read the book

my favorite book with the movie is Were The Red Fern Grows, I like this book and movie because its a sad story and the movie.When I read the book I think of the pictures in the story and when I watch the movie I say to my self that's what I pictured or I say that's what I thought it was.It also tell me why it's called Were The Red Fern Grows. Who ever didn't read the book you should read it now

A book I've read that turned into a movie was Hugo.I really liked the book,personally I thought it was way better than the movie because the book had way more details.My favorite part was when in the beginning Hugo kept stealing from the toy seller and he got caught.The book is really good I recommend you to read it if you haven't.
Cam
10/13/2014 10:43:35 am

Alex L.
10/14/2014 12:26:27 am

A movie that I saw that started out as a book was The Hunger Games. I like the movie better because I got to see what the characters actually look like. Also because I got to see what the places and things look like. I do recommend reading the book and seeing the movie. It was really interesting on how I could compare what I thought it would look like and what the characters look like. The best part of the movie is when Katniss volenters as tribute. The author is Suzanne Collins. If you haven't read the book and see the movie.
Cody
10/14/2014 12:15:59 am

My favorite book that soon became into a movie is called " The Fault in Our Stars" I like the book better because u can actually know what it looks like and sounds like. I always want to read the book first to get a image of it then when i watch the movie i actually know what it looks like. I really loved both the book and the movie.
Megan
10/14/2014 12:26:42 am
I haven't ever read the book before what was your favorite part. Would you recommend the book to other people to read?
Miranda Mauer

The movie the hungry games did start as a book I like the book better then the movie like Bryce said the book has more details then the movie I like the book but I think the book is way better.My favorite part of the movie is when Rue and Katniss work togather.
Jake
10/14/2014 12:17:22 am
My favorite movie was Were The Red Fern Grows it started out as a book then as a movie, but I think that the book is better because you can think about the carecters. Thats why I like this book.
Megan
10/14/2014 12:30:07 am
I agree Jake the book was a lot better because the movie didn't include as many as the parts that the book did. To me some of the main parts were left out. All the very sad parts were left out and I really like sad stories and movies.
Collin
10/14/2014 12:39:49 am
I like that one too. I like the part when he was in the tournament and when he won.

My favorite movie was Twilight because it was so interesting and though there were some pretty bad scenes in the movie it still was pretty good. The story of them falling in love was just so heart warming and also adding the action of the fighting scenes made it even better. When they fight it doesn't look exactly fake, it looks real! I think they put the movies and books together very well.
Miranda
10/15/2014 06:31:08 am
I have seen that movie I liked it also.

Cameron: Why did you think The Hunger Games was so awesome? What genre of books and movies do you like? I can sort of tell you like more of action movies than other kinds of books like horror or comedy. Emma: Why do you like Where The Red Fern Grows? I can see that you like more of comedy books and movies than tragedy but Where The Red Fern Grows is a very good movie and book,sometimes tragedy movies are better than some comedy movies because they have a story that makes you feel sad or bad for them, and some comedy movies just don't have such a good story because there is no story or romance or tragedy in them, and those are sometimes the things that makes movies and books so amazing.

I really should read Dolphin Tail it sounds good. I saw the movie but I think that the book would be better.
Miranda
10/15/2014 06:36:34 am

Collin

My favorite book that turned into a movie is Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The book was better than the movie because it had more detail. My favorite part was when Harry had to try and take the egg from the dragon. It was cool because the dragon chased him where he went and spit fire at Harry. I recomend it to people if they read the first three books.
Amira
10/14/2014 12:38:21 am
I really want to read the Hunger Games. and to see the movie
Wayne
10/14/2014 12:38:40 am
The movie I saw that started out as a book was Harry Potter. The book is better because it has more details. The only reason I started reading Harry Potter though was because of the movie. My favorite part of the Harry Potter books are the battle parts of them. As well as the quidditch. The movie quidditch is better than the book quidditch because it helps visualize the sport better than the book does. This is my favorite movie that started out as a book
Ben
10/14/2014 12:42:12 am
I have not read the books or watched the movie.Although i plan to later in the year.
Collin

You should. But read them in order.

10/15/2014 12:32:40 am
Which book (or movie) was your favorite? I also agree with you about quidditch.
Amira
10/14/2014 12:43:51 am
I love Where the Red Fern Grows. Its so sad but at the same time it's a really interesting book. My favorite part is when they have the big fight with the lion.

Claire

there's a book called Book Thief people recomened it to me so I haven't really watched or read it
Easton
10/14/2014 01:33:53 am
i like the Diary of a Wimpy Kid dog days books and the movies but i think the book is better because it has way more detail in the book because the movie has 80 percent less detail in the movie.So i would read the book first and then the book last.I like watching the movie last because when you first read the book you will see the movie and see what the thing you forgot all about in the movie and you can see how and what it was supposed to look like in the book.
Alex W
10/14/2014 10:02:48 am
That is a cool book and movie
Emma
10/14/2014 06:20:34 am
I don't like hunger games that much,because it's just about people fighting, and the book and the movie don't have a lot of detail

My favorite book that came into a movie is diary of a wimpy kid. It has more details and the book helps you under stand more of it.The movie has less details and less under standing of the book.i think you should read it is amazing book and movie.
Miranda

Amira
10/15/2014 12:33:13 am
My favorite book that turned into a movie is The Baby Sitters Club. It is a really good book becouse of all the fun stuff that go's on. But the movie is worse and is like a whole new picture to put in your mind. I would recomend it for girls becouse it's more of a girls book. But boys could read it to but they wouldn't like it as much.
Amira
10/15/2014 12:35:59 am
I really like Diary of a Wimpy Kid too. And I would agree that the book has more detail.
Miranda
