What do you's think? Should books like HP, MR, and Eragon be made into feature length movies? There are definutely some pros and cons.

I think that it's a good idea. it can encourage children that don't like to read to read more, they see this amazing movie and realizes how amazing books can be.

This is why I'm worried about the MR movies. It depends on who makes them and this is my opinion on the greedy losers who got thier mits on MR...
Has anyone noticed how the Harry Potter leave out some good bits? They did that? Why? CAUSE THEY F*CKIN ASS RAPED IT WITH THIER EDITING OF THE ORIGINAL! And guess what, THE SAME PEOPLE GOT MR!!! This is kind of what I'm afraid of. Regardless MR is going to be a great movie no matter what others say. But still some good bits are gonna be missing! Heck, they'll probably tone down Ari's death, possibly the best bit EVER! If you write books and they get turned into movies, don't give them much control with what they can do with the script. I have a file reminding myself of that for of New York Underworld (Oops... I said the name didn't I ^^; ) if that happens.

Personally, I think Giga's half right... except about HP getting "F*ckin ass raped".
I definutely would have watched HP if it was 6+ hours. Any HP fan would. My mom sister and I think they should have left all the "between" parts for Goblet instead of skipping a month or two at a time.

well.... yeah. HP did get a bit screwed over. they really should have made directors cut versions. I am fully pissed that Winky wasn't in that last one. I wanted to see SPEW!!!!! and without that bit added in then there is no way of knowing that Dobby works at hogworts, which means there wont be a dobby vs. kreacher fight! dang that was amusing in the book! *tear*

I extremly dislike having books made into movies. Because there are things in the books that are left out of the movies. Which if added would have made the entire things better! pfft.. Like in 'willie wonka and the chocolate factory' the book had both the geese and the squirrels. But in both of the movies they only have one of the animal species there. Its ridiculous. Its not being true to the authors work that had been put into the book. But no matter what could be said about it, the directors and producers dont care as long as they make profit from the box office. bleh...
