wrong.

sometimes i think that books should not be made into movies.  when one reads a book, they are able to create ideas, emotions, & personalities for each character.  they create an entire story themselves.  the same book can be completely different to another person.  the stories we create through our imagination, are as unique as our finger prints.  but, when one person is put in charge of a visual portrayal of the book, their finger prints are stamped all over.  & as we become more accustom to this, we start to accept those ideas as the correct ones, squashing our imagination.  although some directors have been known to portray movies very accurately to the plot line of the book, who's to say they get to decide indefinitely what the characters look like?  once an actor has been cast as a character, that image is planted firmly in our minds.  no one is perfect, & no director can get a movie exactly correct.  it is a disappointment when movies differ from the books we all loved so deeply.  the amazing plot lines we poured over for many hours, all change, twisted, & sometimes completely cut.   it just doesn't make sense.  let us all stick to reading books, & exercising our minds to create our own personalized stories, to simply being individuals.
