From TMP:
Here at TMP I’ve had a couple articles dealing with books and movie adaptations. Inevitably one of the comments I always get on these articles say something to the effect of “I didn’t even know that was based off a book!” Sometimes those adaptations can sneak up on you and unless you really watch the credits you would never know. So I’ve compiled a list of movies you most likely didn’t know were based off of books.
Chillopedia: Sometimes, the most hated characters seen on TV can fall into either side of the spectrum. So, here are 15 of the most hated TV characters of all time.
Fight For Paradise Review: This reality show is nothing new but there are so many uncomfortable moments that will definitely give you the ick.
Bros Review: The series, as the title suggests, is about two adult men who want to behave like children and we are not here for that.
I guess Jaws could have gone on here as well...But it always amazes me the amount of people that don't know it was a book first. Just boggles my mind!
I knew Die Hard With a Vengeance (my personal favorite) was based off of a book, but I never knew the original Die Hard was as well.
never knew about the diehard books.
Definitely didn't know Die Hard was a book. Nor did I know Shrek was a book either.
I did know Neverending Story, History of Violence and Road to Perdition were books/comic books.
Loved Neverending Story when I was a kid. Road to Perdition and History of Violence I didn't know about until about a year or so ago.
I didn't know about the Die Hard either. The rest I did but I didn't read any except The Neverending Story but I've seen all the movies.
