books that become movies

-as many of my readers (cough cough) may know twilight a best selling book is being made into a movie. many people have seen the commercials including me and i have to say it is saddening to see a magnificent book demeaned into such a movie that it is hardly recognizable. unfortunatly many other if not most books made into movies i.e. blood and chocolate, have been mutilated and destroyed.
- once the movie comes out the book seems less iportant to future readers if it is not done well and if the movie is a flop we usually lose the book to the space of time for the next generation would not want to read a book in which they think will suck all thanks to the movie.
-however not all movies based on books are inaccurate for example the princess bride was so close to the book i swear they used the same dialouge. so i would like to hear what other people have to say on this topic. so imaginary people get typing.
