What are your biggest disappointments in media such as a book turned into a movie a video game that turned out to stink, anything like that

Mine would be the Avatar Last Airbender Movie and The Lightning Thief turned into a movie

and Maggie Gylaanhaal seemed completely out of place.

Not to be rude but i think she was a bit old for that role.

The Lightning Thief movie was bullcrap. I mean, it didn't even have all the main characters! And the story was f'ed up!

The only reason people thought it was good was because of the graphics. i though Avatar had to many environmental messages in it.


I disagree. Avatar was a spectacular display visually yes, but it did something many movies cannot do. It immersed the viewer into the story. I agree the plot was something from Dances With Wolves, but that movie is considered a classic, furthermore as I said before the movie gave the viewer an emotional attachment and it engrossed them into the story, something few movies do.

NOW as for dissapointments, I would say every Harry Potter move EXCEPT the first two, because the first two were almost exact replicas of what I thought the story would look like on film.

Yes, I agree with you on the Harry Potter ones wolf. I can never stop watching or reading the first two. They were brilliant. The last 4 movies? Bleh... not expecting anything good out of the seventh, but I'm still gonna go see it.

@ sensanaty
I agree with your opinion of the female actors

My biggest disippointment would have to be from when I was in 7th grade. My band teacher told us we would play at the High School's football game but, we never did. Then about a week after the game he told use "Well, I just thought it would be to much of a hassel." He had been telling the marching band for a month, we were going to play at the game.
