BUT I still love them, lol, except 3. 3's adaptation pissed me off! Kay, I'll get off my HP high horse now, lol.<br /><br />Yes, the BBC P&P is a very good adaptation. Plus, it has Colin Firth. Sigh. Although, I still think the actresses who played Jane and Charlotted should've been switched and that "Jane" looks like Alan Tudyk.Jenni Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403700912436098391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-49284285457775341892013-07-09T09:40:17.890-06:002013-07-09T09:40:17.890-06:00Great list and agree about BBC Pride & Prejudi...Great list and agree about BBC Pride & Prejudice :) I love to watch Holes Julie@My5monkeyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17861113387434481518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-83152819982923942182013-07-09T08:45:35.409-06:002013-07-09T08:45:35.409-06:00Ah, Percy Jackson!

I feel the same way about Ella Enchanted. Love the book, love the movie, don't see how they relate other than the title.

The Help did a good job with the story except for a few changes, but books like Under the Tuscan Sun where the character's story was totally different was disappointing.
