I've lost my wings. Once I get a job. Finish dusting my 5000+ DVD's. Get my 5000+ DVD's in alphabetical or genre order again. Get my 5000+ films written down in a notepad and recorded online somewhere. Have the films I've seen but don't own, written down and recorded online somewhere. And run out of excellent TV series to watch (which is looking less and less likely as I've got over 100 series on my watch-list). I'll be flying again.

"The Wizard of Oz," "The Grapes of Wrath," "Doctor Zhivago," and especially "Gone with the Wind" should at least be mentioned, which they aren't. "A Streetcar Named Desire" is mentioned in quick passing, but I think it probably deserves a spot on the list for having launched Marlon Brando's film career. Without "Streetcar," the entire history of film would be radically different. There wouldn't have been an "Apocalypse Now." Also it might be mentioned that "Pirates of the Caribbean" was such a great adaptation of the Disney ride that they actually went back and changed the ride to make it center around Jack Sparrow. And speaking of Disney - Speak of Disney!! The Disney adaptation of "Beauty and the Beast" in particular, I think, deserves some discussion. "Adaptation" is an original screenplay about the inability to adapt something. To categorize it as a successful adaptation doesn't seem right to me. And while "O Brother" is stuffed full of visual references to The Odyssey, the plot diverges an awful lot for it to really be called an adaptation (for starters, Odysseus is a victorious king, not an escaped prisoner, and he doesn't have to retrieve anything in order for his wife to take him back, he just has to murder all of the suitors who have shown up during his absence).

I dont see how? SPOILER ALERT: .. Not every story with incest has something to do with oedipus. Neither the narrative structure or the characters motivations are based on Oedipus Rex. There may some similarities in the emotional core of the story but not enough to call it an adaptation.

Volvagia´s Blaze Jodorowsky tried to adapt Dune in the '70, after he did The Holy Mountain. He also wrote the script and the storyboard, and everything was ready but in the end Hollywood didn't let him shot the movie. In the documentary "Jodorowsky's Dune", at the end, he says the material he has put together wouldn't be good anymore for a live action, but it could be for an animated movie. If you haven't seen it, check the documentary!

I know about the legendary Jodorosky version, i actually own the documentary. The movie wasn´t made because he spent 1 million dollars of a 10 million budget film on pre-production alone and it was gonna be a nightmare to promote a 4 hour LSD trip. Some good did come out of it being canceled. People like H. R. Giger, Dan O´Bannon, Chris Foss and many others who worked on the film eventually made Alien.

Just no. Watchmen the movie dumbed down the original source (from a filmaking and a thematic point of view) without adding anything valuable to it (except if you're into lazy matrix-style fightings... which doesn't suits the original graphic novel's main point).
