13 Writers Who Hate Movie Adaptations Of Their Work

Although it is not exactly fair to suggest that Hollywood is devoid of creative ideas, it is undeniable that liiterary adaptations account for a considerable share of the films released each year. While it may appear simple to adapt a book into a film because there would be a story in place, films and books are two completely different narrative media, as well as what works in one does not always transfer well to another.

As a result, many writers choose to be personally involved in the modification process to ensure that their work isn't dramatically altered throughout the move from page to screen.

You may assume that as a writer, you'd want to see your work on the big screen, even if the people who put it there made a few creative liberties... but these 13 authors don't think so. They despise the big-screen adaptation of their work and are eager to tell everyone about it.
