    some reviewers are even saying it took the crown from the Percy Jackson movies as the worst book adaptation.
    That will always belong to Eragon imo

    Nah. Think outside the comics, sci-fi & fantasy genres.

    The Beach. Or Captain Corelli’s Mandolin.

    Examples of just plain getting it wrong. And in CCM’s case, completely missing the point.

    I was thinking purely in terms of YA book adaptations but yeah you're correct on the overall point

    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    From what I've heard, Eragon was a decent adaptation. It was just adpating a shitty book

    I mean from what you've heard, you're objectively wrong.

    Ignoring the quality of the book, they fundamentally changed everything from 'what season the story takes place', to the motivations of the main characters. To the point where the only commonality between the two were the names used. Here's a handy breakdown (spoilers).

    As far as adaptations go, it's pretty horrendous. To say nothing of the acting.
