Books turned into movies...

A couple of weeks ago, my new favorite Trilogy "The Hunger Games" came out with their first movie. I went and saw the movie right away, and can't wait to go back again! This topic made me curious as to what other books have been turned into movies, and how many have been popular. Besides Harry Potter and Twilight, teenage and young adult readers haven't been as excited for a movie until this movie came out a couple weeks ago. There are SO many books turned into movies that people do not even realize!

The obvious sequels, Harry Potter and Twilight...

There are so many others,

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Lorax, The Lovely Bones, The Help, The Time Travelers Wife, Water for Elephants, Charlottes Web, The Notebook, and SO many more...

Behind Harry Potter (Deathly Hallows part 2) and The Dark Knight, The Hunger Games comes in with an opening day of $152,535,747 dollars.... This coming from a girl who didn't want to make it "BIG" in movies.

On Chelsea Lately, Jennifer Lawrence surprised me with her quirky/funny/sarcastic personality, making me TEN TIMES more excited for this movie. If I were to give any suggestion to those going to see The Hunger Games, read the book first. The movie was great, do not get me wrong! BUT you will understand the plot more with the books background.
