    Cool idea!! Will definitely sign up in a bit...........just gotta add it to my Blogfest list etc :) I think the real trick will be to try and remember (and/or figure out :P) all the book/movie combos I've seen.

    This sounds like a cool idea, although I can't think of all that many books/stories.

    Sounds like fun!! I'll have to see what I can come up with - there's the obvious blockbusters, of course...but, I'll dig for a few more obscure novel/movie adaptations. I'm in! :)

    Why are you tempting me like this? I can resist this one so I'm in. There are so many I could name, but I'll try to keep my list short.

    what a great idea and thanks for linking to the movie list. i've seen so many of those and hadn't realized they came from a book. do you just want a list or do you want us to include our take on the differences?

    ReplyDelete
  31. scribbleandedit.blogspot.co.uk17 July 2011 at 14:46

    Good question Michelle

    The fest lasts 3 days so maybe you could post your list up 1st and then do a post on your take on the differences over the following 2 days. :O)

    Neat idea, my first post is done. I'll add more movies later. It's a bit difficult to think of them all at once.
