minus-squarehOrni@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up23arrow-down1·2 years agoIt’s been some time since I’ve read the book, but I always say, Forrest Gump is an example of the movie being better than the book.
minus-squareEvacuateSoul@lemmy.worldcakelinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down1·2 years agoAnother example of this is Fight Club. The movie has the big twist, which isn’t even hidden in the book.

minus-squareWhoisJohnGalt@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down2·2 years agoI agree, usually this isn’t the case. IMO the other example of this is with Jurassic Park.

minus-squareDragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafelinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·2 years agoThe best part of the book was making Hammond the villain, that should have been kept.
minus-squareVaryk@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up13arrow-down3·2 years agoHow do you mean? I found the book much more compelling. After I read it, I thought that maybe I would’ve cared about the movie if he had a scoche of relatability or development. Movie gump seemed like a trope rather than a character as soon as the previews were being shown.
