Being an extraordinary writer, C. S. Lewis’s books series The Chronicles of Narnia have been made into a series of movies that are delightful for all ages. The main series of movies was created by Disney and varies from the books more than another version that was created by the BBC. Although the movies are good and are said follow the story it could be said when comparing the two The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe in can be said that the book is better because it lets the reader live the story instead of just watching it. The book elaborates more when the wardrobe is first entered, when Aslan is killed and brought back to life, and then again when the end battle happens.
Sometimes it is genuinely surprising how different novels and cinematic arts can be, don’t you think? One example of this comparison is found in the Hound of the Baskervilles novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The novel written by, Arthur C. Doyle, while the movie adaptation(2002 edition) directed by, David Attwood. In the movie adaptation Richard Roxburgh plays as Sherlock Holmes and Ian Hart plays as Dr. John Watson. These two different portrayals of the same story show how much a novel and a movie can vary.
The book “The Lovely Bones” is about a girl named Susie. She was murdered and it showed what kind of toll that took on a family. The movie has the same story line. However there are a lot of differences between the two.
From the beginning of the novel 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' by Thomas Hardy, it is clear that the main character, Tess, is not going to have an easy life. She is
Imagine you were stuck in a world where everyone is out to get you. Everyone you know is infected with a rage that makes them target you, and only you. They will go through whatever it takes to rip you to shreds, even if it kills them. The novel starts off in quite a sickening way, jumping straight into the plot and describing a boy getting brutally murdered by his mother and sister. They didn’t care that it was his birthday, they only wanted his blood. Through the next few chapters we are greeted by the three main characters, Daisy, Cal, and Brick. These people have one thing in common, and it’s that everyone is trying to kill them. They band together with other teens to try and figure out why the world is out to kill them.
Imagine living on venus where it is gloomy every day except for one hour every 7 years. You are always constantly hearing rain. This is how the kids of ray bradbury felt in all summer in a day. This story was put in action with Ed Kaplan. Although they are the same story the movie has more detail, like how it the book it states, that “when the rain stopped then went underground”, but in the movie all the buildings are above ground.
"Ah!" says he, smiling, "you are deeper than me in the geography. But so far, I may tell you, this agrees pretty exactly with other informations that I hold. But you say you were kidnapped; in what sense?" There are many differences in the novel and the movie kidnapped and many similarities but on the other hand, only the movie is worth seeing because, of more detail. Kidnapped in movie form is the better choice. In the movie their is a huge bundle of characters, more evidence to the storyline, and many more reasons why the movie is an obvious arrow to go towards watching it.
The Hound of the Baskervilles has been made into fourteen different movies, each containing different elements that make it unique in its own way. The subjects being discussed today are David Atwood’s version of the movie and the original book written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. According to 179 people on a poll on one of the popular sites for ‘Sherlockians’ around the world, Hound of the Baskervilles is the best Sherlock Holmes novel written (http://www.bestofsherlock.com/story/storyhm.htm ). The book got a rating of Although they bear some superficial similarities, the differences between the movie and the book are pronounced and deserve thorough examination through the characters, the tone, and the changes in the plot. This will show which is a better story, the new visual representation of the book we all know and love, or the original copy of one of the most read Sherlock Holmes story.
In Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles, he writes of a girl named Tess. Tess is a beautiful independent young lady who struggles with bad luck and irresponsibility. Hardy adds to the plot of bad luck by writing about two boys: Angel and Alec who both strive to have Tess’s heart. By the end of the book, it is pretty obvious that neither of the boys deserve Tess, but Hardy wrote this for the readers to decide who was better. This novel creates a feeling of an old-time bachelorette love story that leaves the readers clueless; however, in the end, Angel is a much better candidate for Tess than Alec is.
Consequently, this tragedy foreshadowed Tess’ life in general, since she always gets wrapped up in the past and sorrow follows her every move. For example, Tess feels happy with her new husband Angel, so she decides to share her past with him, and he rebukes her for this, leading her back to a life without happiness but pain in its place. Foreshadowing is highly prevalent in this work of art and it truly develops Hardy’s themes of the double standard in life and injustice that Tess faces. Her precious child, the only good that came from her relationship with Alec, dies only a few months after his birth, which resembles much of her consequent life, especially Angel. In this regard, peace and freedom from injustice is impossible for Tess.
I read the Westing game and saw “get a clue” the movie version of that book. I personally think the book was way better then the movie for these reasons. First, the movie had way less heirs then in the book. Another reason is that the characters were a lot weirder in the movie than in the book. The final reason is that they were missing some key components and details , for example they made angela's hair brown and there was no smoke from the westing house.
It is the private lives of the soldiers, their love, and fears that drives the novel and also the film. This is what grounds the movie and through these personalities traits of each major character in the film, it shows the historical mindset of those who fought during the Civil War.

Do you know how people always say that the book is better than the movie? That opinion may always remain open ended because everyone has a different perspective. The Hound of the Baskervilles has been interpreted in a countless amount of ways, but the story always starts as a mystery. The film presentation of The Hound of the Baskervilles, directed by David Attwood in 2002 contains much of the plot presented in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s novel. However, the film adaptation in this case is better than the book because it added more suspense which stimulated more interest from the audience through the slight changes in characters, point-of-view, the exposition, and the resolution.
