Coming soon…

I am fascinated by books that get made into movies, especially when it’s books that I absolutely adored reading. I am always interested in seeing if it turns out to be a good translation of the book (To Kill a Mockingbird, The Color Purple, Forrest Gump), or if it totally misses the mark (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, any Dr. Suess live action movie). Here’s to hoping both of these are pitch perfect, because these were two of my faves. I’m hopeful because that’s the kind of gal I am, what do y’all think?
p.s. sorry for the ridiculous load times if you want to try to watch them directly from Trailer Addict go here and here.
p.p.s. also if you haven’t read either of these you should do so ASAP – they’re really pretty fantastic.
The Lovely Bones: Deluxe Edition
The Road (Movie Tie-in Edition 2008 of the 2006 publication)

Ohhh I LOVED The Lovely Bones!! Can’t wait for that one! I actually saw a trailer for it when I saw The Time Traveler’s Wife!

The lovely bones was the first book our bookclub ever read– and now as a mother it haunts me.
It was so well written, raw and affecting. Glad it’s becoming a movie, I just hope it lives upto the book!

I’m worried about The Road. Looks like they turned it into an armegeddon action flick instead of a father/son story.

@Molly – I know! Sadly, I sort of noticed the same thing but I decided to ignore it.
