Listopia > The Adaptation Was Better

A list of books that I personally think were inferior to their book or TV show adaptations. If there are multiple adaptations for one book that I have come across and liked better, I will be mentioning that.
Please be respectful and don't bombard me with comments about how "I am wrong". This is my opinion and my opinion alone. Feel free to recommend me TV shows, movies and even books though.
