It premiered earlier this month. It definitely wasn't the prank-playing kids from the first two, but I didn't think it was terrible. I think that fans
of the first two might like them a little more.

That's the ones off the top of my head, though it's probably not much more. I enjoy movies, but I have a hard time finding time to watch them. I spend
lots of time reading and listening to music. And then there's my slight addiction to reality tv . I really do like movies though, I just happen to also like the other pastimes a lot as well lol.

You should watch them! No heavy hitting issues or anything, but they are fun movies.

We're reading a couple of books right now. I think I would like the books if it wasn't required. I'm sort of weird like that.

Luckily I had a bad teacher and then a good teacher who didn't have time to make up what the bad teacher didn't do, so I've only known the Odyssey's
story through the movie. Same with Romeo and Juliet, though I think I might read the play over the summer. I also may try to read a Tale of Two Cities
again; I tried to before but couldn't get into it, but I still think the story seems like it would be fascinating.
How obsessed are we that we find a way to talk about books in the Movie Challenge forum? lol

Hahaha lmao, it just happens lol and as far as a tale of two cities it's a good story but i don't like the old writing style, i could never really get
into it except Austen, but that's really it

I don't think I've ever read old writing style, so I am sort of looking forward to seeing what I think of it. Austen is another author I have really
been looking forward too. I think I will like her work.

Added those to my list, though I am sure pride and prejudice is on there somewhere already. Sometimes I think I spend more time adding to that list
than actually reading books from it!

I can't remember anymore defining details abot the version I watched. I guess it would help if I had seen the other one, huh?
I'm oddly proud that I just added my first movie since the original list.
I am determined to make this and my book challenge.

I watched the outsiders(on youtube!). I actually really liked it. It was definitely a faithful adaption to the book. I, personally, don't think I can
truly say which I like better(book or movie) since the movie is so close to the book. I guess the introspect of Ponyboy was good in the book,
but the movie didn't suck without it.

Yeah I know, i think this was my favorite book adaptation, like you said it was very close in detail. Glad you liked it If i watched the movie before reading the book i probably would have liked the movie
more, but i'm leaning more towards the book lol
