30 Day Film Challenge: Day 26 – A Film You Like That is Adapted from Somewhere

I’ve already used several movies that came from books, and here’s another one!

Stardust (2007)

Based on Neil Gaiman’s 1999 novel of the same name.

30 Day Film Challenge: Day 23 – A Film Made By a Director That is Dead

It’s a Wonderful Life (1946)

Director: Frank Capra

30 Day Film Challenge: Day 22 – A Film That Made You Angry

The remake of IT (2017)

I wasn’t exactly angry, but oh my God it sucked so bad!

30 Day Film Challenge: Day 14 – A Film That Gave You Depression

Okay, when I watched Odd Thomas (2014), I already knew it would rip my heart to shreds because I’d read the book. I have cried during books before, shedding a few tears over fictional deaths or whatever, but I literally sobbed at the end of that one, and that unhappiness lasted days. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that the film had a similar effect on me.

30 Day Film Challenge: Day 8 – A Film Where You Liked the Soundtrack More

Okay, I’m just gonna say it.

Queen of the Damned (2002) was an atrocious film, particularly if you had read the book. They left out so much that the movie didn’t exactly progress logically. However, the soundtrack was enough to – almost – save it. Hell, the scene in the tub while “Change (In the House of Flies)” by Deftones plays makes the entire film! Lol.

30 Day Film Challenge: Day 6 – Your Favorite Animated Film

As opposed to a cartoon, I’m going with stop-motion animation.

Coraline (2009) is not only my favorite animated films, it’s one of my favorite films period. I could watch it every single day and never tire of it.

30 Day Film Challenge: Day 1 – The First Film You Remember Watching

There are a couple of movies swirling around in that distant part of my brain that remembers the childhood years. Lol. I want to say The Little Mermaid is the first one I clearly remember, as it was my favorite when I was a kid. However, I’m pretty sure The Secret World of Og (1983) came first – and I can recall it vividly.

Anyone else remember this?
