DBWI Your Favourite Film Adaptations

Here you can list your favourite film adaptations, whether from books, cartoons (western or anime) or games of any kind.
  • Yu-Gi-Oh (2017) - This may seem like an odd choice, but given i'm a sucker for Egyptian mythology, I love how Sam Esmail went back to basics and really incorporated it into the story.
  • Gamera (2014) - One of my all time favourite monster movies, thanks to Christopher MacQuarrie and Hailee Steinfeld.
  • Jurassic World - This sequel helmed by Robert Zemeckis really expanded on the original film, unlike the two other sequels.

Well, before he became President of the United States Orson Welles directed an adaptation of Heart of Darkness in 1939. It swept the Oscars and set Welles on a path to greatness. History wouldn't be the same without it.
 
Carl Sagan's 2001: A Space Odyssey (2001) was an excellent remake of Kubrick's original and another great adaptation of Clarke's The Sentinel.

Superman: Red Son (2018) was pretty much Soviet propaganda, but it's still one of the better films to come out of the Soviet Union in the last few years.

After the US bailed out the Soviet economy in 1991, Russian films just haven't been the same. That said I do rather like the Russian remake of House of Cards, which in some ways was better than the British original.
