I think that movies are kind of ruining book's. All writers now a day's write just for movies. It just seems that most of the authors write their books with the hopes that one day it will be a movie. When in reality it should be good enough to have a book published for the sake of it being a book. There are hundreds of people out there just waiting to get a chance at getting a book out there and having people read there work. But all the publishers are letting through is trash ment for the screen and not the page. The authors of these works are stupid though because the only books that make it to the screen are the books that deserve to be there. aka books that are written well and with the idea that they will always be books. I'm not trying to discredit anyone that has written a book. It is very hard work and takes a lot of thought proses to complete, but people start writing for the sake of writing and not to make millions off of a movie.
Thanks for reading
'The only books that make it to the screen are the books that deserve to be there'? I dunno about that; Twilight is a movie ;D OH! She went there! 8D
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean though.... And movies derived from books are always terrible in comparison to the text because they have to squish so much information into under 2 hours of screen time. I think most writers do write for the sake of the book though... It would just be a wonderful idea that their book became so loved that it was developed into a movie, and hence gained even more readers...? Maybe the whole 'book to movie' thing is just more publicity?
