Is there a book you’ve seen made into a film and been disappointed with the result?

I think books are always better than a movie but I can’t think of one that disappointed me. I’ll think of a bunch later. 😁

I always thought books were better than their movie versions, and then I tracked down a copy of Nothing Lasts Forever, which is the book that the Die Hard movie is based on and, uh, yeah. That would be the exception. The film is so, so, so, so much better than the book (which is presumably one of the reasons it is out of print)

That’s very interesting.
