I've read a few books because the movie left me with questions. But mostly if I loved the movie I'll read the book. If I HATED the movie? I am so not reading the book.

But once in a while, The movie makes me go "huh? that makes no sense? How'd they get there?" so I go read the book. And I sometimes like the book BETTER.

But mostly, If I LOVE the book, I avoid the movie at all costs (Percy Jackson for instance. LOVE the books. Heard the movie changed EVERTYHING and left huge, gaping holes in the storyline. WON'T be seeing that thing. EVER!!! Leave me my innocence!!!!!)

Unless the book is popular, a classic, or part of the canon...we don't know whether a film was a novel before. =D

Sometimes a film spurs me on to read the novel which is usually children or young adult books like Harry Potter.

Honestly, I didn't know some of those movies were taken from books either :)
And I've got to admit, sometimes I just watched the movie because I was too lazy to read the book...but that happened _very_ long ago...

other than The Lord of The Rings, i don't think any movie has given justice to a good book.

Am surprised A Beautiful Mind is taken from a book, that would be an interesting read to see how the writer would cover up for the plot, as the movie director did it in a very clever way, i tend to think it is difficult to do the same when writing. Am inticed to read the book now

I loved a lot of the movies on this list. Half of them I had no idea had a book to it, namely Apollo 13, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and Angels & Demons.
Angels & Demons is one of my favorite movies of all time. Its amazing. I especially did not expect Shutter Island to be a book. It was also very amazing, yet confusing. A lot of these books I've only read the book, not the movie, or the other way around, or both.

really good list. who would've thought that Catch me if you can, or the pursuit of happiness were books?! i think most movies that have a great or deep story behind them were originally books, other movies depend on other things rather than the story (well not all of them!) for instance i should have guessed that pay it forward was a book no other way could they have thought of that idea and just brought it to the screens.

If I get even a hint that the book is going to be made in to a movie I read the book immediately so that I can criticize the movie. Now seeing the list I realize I have watched a lot of movies without having even the slightest idea that they were books first. Sure I will read some of the books mentioned but that will be because the movie was too confusing.

I'm glad to find this vote. And so far, I've voted 69 movies. I know that Some movies were originally from books, like Fantastic Mr. Fox, Harry Potter series, Time Traveler's Wife, etc, but I was shocked to know that Green Mile, December Boys, The Blind Side, empire of The Sun and some others are from books.

U have some e-books for those movies, but it seems that I don't intend to read the books since I enjoyed the movies, like The Phantom of The Opera, Time Traveller's Wife, The Kite Runner, etc.

I disagree. There are a lot of movie adaptations (I, Robot, War of the Worlds, Ella Enchanted, Stuart Little, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Three Musketeers, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Dracula, etc.) that actually have very little in common with the books on which they are supposedly based. In my opinion, it's usually worth reading the book even if you saw the movie first. I like to compare the two and analyze the changes made in film adaptations.
