This Week's TOP Ten 
[Top Ten Best/Worst Movie Adaptations] 

Kait:

 The Perks of Being a Wallflower  The Perks of Being a Wallflower
 -Perks of Being a Wallflower
I've loved this book since high school and I really enjoyed the movie.

The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, #1)  The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games #1)
-The Hunger Games

I think considering that most of the book is in Katniss' head the movie was pretty damn good.
To Kill a Mockingbird  To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) Poster
 -To Kill a Mockingbird
A classic book and an amazing movie. 
The Notebook  the notebook
-The Notebook

One of the only times I'll say I liked the movie better than the book. Plus, RYAN GOSLING.


The Road  The Road
-The Road

Even though the book was way better I still felt a lot of the same things[mainly fear] when I saw the movie.

Beth:
I Am Number Four (Lorien Legacies, #1)  I Am Number Four (Lorien Legacies, #1)
I am Number Four
- I love the Lorien Legacies. I'm really upset that they're not making more movies. I thought the first one was great. 

Beautiful Creatures (Caster Chronicles, #1)  Beautiful Creatures (Caster Chronicles, #1)
Beautiful Creatures
- Even though it doesn't follow the story line of the book, this movie was AMAZING.
Twilight (Twilight, #1)  Twilight (Twilight, #1)
The Twilight Series
- I'm not afraid to be honest, I loved this series and I loved the movies. 
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (The Chronicles of Narnia, #1)  The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Movie tie-in)
The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe
- I read this book as a kid. I then watched the animated cartoon, when Disney completely re-did it again... they did such a wonderful job. 
Romeo & Juliet: The Contemporary Film, The Classic Play Romeo and Juliet 
Romeo & Juliet
- Classic. I'm obsessed with Leonardo DiCaprio. This is one of my all time favorite movies. Ever.

    This is a great list. I completely agree with you on the Lorien Legacies, I've read the first one and the movie was amazing, but the other books in the series are still on my TBR.

    I definitely agree with To Kill a Mockingbird - such an awesome adaptation! I still have to watch The Notebook, I really enjoyed the book and I'm looking forward to watching the movie, especially as you seemed to love it so much! :D

    Great List!! I should have included The Perks of Being a Wallflower to my list. I loved the movie, but I still need to read the book. That is the only reason I didn't include it.

    The Hunger Games was VERY well done. I can't wait for Catching Fire.

    This is a great list. I'm a fan of most of your choices with the exception of I am Number Four I think that could have been amazing if cast better. I'm still on the fence about Beautiful Creatures.
