I've come to the decision that the executive in Hollywood has run out of movie ideas. Seriously!Has anyone else taken notice that every movie lately is either based of a book, or a old marvel comic? If you don't believe me that Hollywood is using book authors as their personal "screenwriters," check out the list I've compiled of books that are either currently being made into a movie or will be made into movies over the next couple of years. , I only spotlighted a few of the books that are coming to the big screen but there are a bunch!
I will admit that I am positively giddy about several of the books listed below being made into movies...I guess that makes me a sell out...oh well, I just can't help watching the love triangle between Bella, Edward and Jacob!

WHAT? Hunger Games? What will that one's rating be... it will be a gruesome one for sure. But life of Pie is pretty intense too. I havent read many of the other books though...Pretty excited about Alice and wonderland....The giver has the opportunity to be really cool and artistic....memories, a black and white world. We will just have to wait and see.
This bums me out. I wanted to read so many of those books, but once I see the movie, I always lose interest. Thanks for the heads up.
wowsers! I actually did think that there were a lot of movies being made into movies, but I didn't know about half of these! I love being enlightened from your blog!
don't forget the Time Traveler's Wife!
Great bblog you have here
