The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardobe.

Of course I will admit that its been a few years since I've read the book, but I thought they did a good job with the movie.

I'd like to see an adaptation of Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns" graphic novel.

I thought the adaption was pretty good. But I did miss the romp among Aslan and the girls, I would have loved to see that.

One thing I found surprising was that Tilda Swinton didn't wear any very striking face or even eye make-up; but I'm glad she didn't. Usually in a lot of children's movies, especially Disney, they make up the villainess heavily, mainly around the eyes. But Tilda swinton just has this natural beauty and with her character being an element of nature and evil she didn't need it. :P

with all due respect to Ian Flemming, but i still think Casino Royale was better than the novel. of course, the novel was written in the 60's, so the movie definitely had to do some heavy updating to the storyline, and well, it did give the whole franchise the much needed boost it deserves
