I guess it's an adaptation, so Burton felt he had creative, artistic license. but I guess I'm not interested - LOL!

there are probably examples of movies that were better than the books - I've heard that was the case with Gone with the Wind. But the classics like Alice are best read, I think:)

thanks hon!

True, sometimes those gambles with "adaptations" work well, and you enjoy it, and other times, not so much.

Hmm, I haven't heard that about Gone with the Wind, but I have had no desire to see movie, or watch book. I just read both Alice books for the first time recently and really enjoyed them. They are fun books :)

Gone with the Wind is really a fantastic film - if you can sit through it! it's something close to four hours long. it takes patience:) the Alice books are great - and there's no copyright on them anymore, so I just downloaded a pdf file so I can read it again!

*hugs*

hmm, maybe if I have 4 hours to watch a movie, I will think about renting GWTW. Yay for no copyrights, so you can read free stuff :)

::hugs::

well I'd suggest watching GWTW in segments, an hour here and there. all at once it's pretty tiresome:)

*hugs*
