Films Based on Books

List of 5 Films Based on Books:

Title	Description	Picture
5. The Lord of The Rings Trilogy	The Lord of The Rings Trilogy were three books written by J. R. R. Tolkien. The movies won several Oscars, but the third one (The Return of The King) had won eleven Oscars.	The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
4. Die Hard	Die Hard? A novel? Yes it was. This movie, with Bruce Willis and directed by John McTiernan, was inspired from the novel Nothing Lasts Forever, by Roderick Thorp. Rotten Tomatoes calls it “a definitive holiday action classic,” and they gave it a rating of 92%	Die Hard (1988)
3. Amityville Horror	It is almost October, and what is October known for? Yes, you got it, Fall. The real answer is Halloween. The Amityville Horror was a film directed by Stuart Rosenberg. The book was written by Jay Anson, in 1977, and it is “based on a true story” (Yes, quote on quote people).	© 1979 - MGM, Inc.
2. The Birds	Another Halloween topic (probably the last one on this list) would have to be “The Birds,” by Daphne du Maurier is a book about birds attacking people (how cheesy, but hey, it’s Hitchcock) and killing them. This is suppose to, or it is seen as a horror. “The Birds” was directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and it was one of the scariest movies from back then.	Photo by Courtesy of AMPAS
1. Who Framed Roger Rabbit?	And number one is….. Who Framed Roger Rabbit? So, who framed him? The reason why this is number one is because this is the best (at least one of them) movie that we, and even people on their twenties, watched this movie in our childhood years. “Who Censored Roger Rabbit?” was a book written by Gary K. Wolf, in 1981. This movie was directed by Robert Zemeckis, in 1988. This movie was one of the greatest movies that I have ever seen. It is both funny and mysterious, and if you have not watched it, then stop reading this blog and go watch it. Then please come back...please.	Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)

All of these movies, and books, were great and fun, but there are still more out there.

One TIP: Read the book before you watch the movie, always look if the movie you want to watch was based on a novel, and if it was, then take my advice, and go read it, then watch the movie.
