#QoTD for readers.

Out of books you have read that later got turned into movies, what was the worst movie adaption?

A Wrinkle In Time. No doubt about it. When I saw some promotion for it on Disney I was like "That looks cool" and I went to Wal Mart one day and found the book and decided I would read that first and then when the movie came out I would watch it. I'm glad I read the book. The book was amazing and definitely in my top 3 favorite books. I loved the creativity and the story of Meg and it was a book I could not put down. And then I watched the movie. The only thing I will say good about it is that the actors they got for the movie were amazing fits and represented their characters well. Visually it was a good movie. But they left too much out, they left out an important character that then pushed another important character to the side, the movie lacked majorly in the emotion the movie's story should have portrayed, and it seemed... rushed is how I would put it. It was like they started it and did the most they could to get the story done as soon as possible. Now I know they aren't gonna make a movie intended for kids with short attention spans like 5 hours long, but they sacrificed half of the story to make it half as long. It's horrible what they did to such a great book.

KnightStar Loved the book, read it years ago though. I have the other parts. Wrinkle in Time and Percy Jackson were absolutely horrid movie adaptions, though Percy Jackson was at least mildly enjoyable.

Sewinghedgies101 Agreed

Queeny I weep for the PJ movie once a day, everyday.

lunalovegoodmolly Percy Jackson even tho it was ok in a horrible way

lunamoonlight I read the books for Percy Jackson and loved them, i think I have seen parts of the movies while my mom was watching them but I never payed attention.

forgxtten Wrinkle in Time and Percy Jackson.

lunamoonlight Now I just wanna see the PJ movies to know why people dislike them lol

supercoolpenguin Percy Jackson was terrible but I like the broadway musical

In an anime, this dude went to a park 2 times. Each time he was at the park someone tried to brutally murder him and someone had to come in and practically bring him back from the dead. Just stop going to that park dude.

Ages in a WebToon

A- 200 yo looks 18
B- 420 yo looks 20
C- 800 yo looks 22
D- "Disappear" (I have many questions author...)

I am just wondering why not make 18, 20, and 22 their actual ages? It doesn't really make a difference. And what the heck does "disappear" mean?!!??!?

UmmKairi 420 lol

JD2005 Yes. In Yumi's Cells, the main character is 32, but she looks much younger, like a preteen.

KnightStar being 32 must be the best :)

I failed at unlocking my tablet so many times that I had to wait 30 seconds to try again lol.

lunalovegoodmolly Wow

UmmKairi once i had to wait a week

JD2005 Sometimes that happens to me, lol.

lunamoonlight Mine is just waiting 30 seconds after you failed like 10 times maybe. It isn't even that hard, it's a spiral pattern.

I have no clubs for this... So imma post here. This is basically just me talking about 4D, if you do not care just scroll to the next post.

So ever since I read the book A Wrinkle In Time (not the movie, the movie was crap), 4D and a tesseract. The best way I can describe what 4D would be like is to go over the other dimensions. For each dimension, add 2 directions. 1D, you can go left or right. A 1D shape is a line. 2D, you can go left, right, up or down. A 2D shape is a square. For 3D (us), you can go left, right, up, down, forwards and backwards. A 3D shape is a cube. For 4D, you can go left, right, up, down, forwards, backwards, and in and out. A 4D shape is a tesseract. If you want to know what that looks like there is a 50% chance I might be able to post a GIF of one. For example... imagine a ship in a bottle. In 3D, the only ways to do so are to either build the ship inside of the bottle piece by piece, or if you are very skilled, blow the glass around it. In 4D you could alter the sizes and easily fit the ship in there. It is sorta hard to explain because the idea of 4D is either something you understand or you don't, there is no way to really teach the idea of it to someone, you have to understand it on your own. Pictures help. There are some scientists who think we will someday in the far future evolve to 4D, though this creates some worry if the human race will survive that transition or not, but it would be cool to see things in 4D someday.

lunamoonlight Ya know what, im done with GIFs, my internet crashes almost every time I am on giphy.

KnightStar I love the books! Not the movie. The movie was horrid.

lunamoonlight @KnightStar I. KNOW. RIGHT!? I loved the book, it had a good plot whilst the movie didn't even have a plot. They took out Aunt Beast, and then that made Calvin utterly useless because he was supposed to be a communicator, so they might as well have taken him out even though he was a main character. There was a lot less emotion in the movie than the book. In the movie they got less than the bare minimum of events to even call it A Wrinkle In Time, it just has the same characters (except for Aunt Beast) in some knock off.

I FOUND ONE OF ANGEL! So cute.

lunamoonlight Original picture. Angel the chihuahua min pin mix breed. Ft. My heart blanket and editing skills.

JD2005 Aww...

Ada4 Aww!

KnightStar awww

lunalovegoodmolly Awwwww

Bootiful pictures of my animals below that I had in my camera roll. So cute! I for some reason do not have any of just Angel, i think I need to go look in my memos for Angel. (If you run low on storage, make some memos on that pre-downloaded app Memo or Notepad ect, and move pictures to it. It doesn't take up storage and you can delete them from your gallery but still have them.)

JD2005 Thanks for the tip!

"No pictures please"
