Thanks for the give away.

1. I'm not really into books so I guess I like the director to go his own way with movies from books.
2.Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Leo with his swords)

I think it the director is capable of making changes for the better than he can you his artistic merit
As for sword play its the lone wolf and cub movie series

thank you so much

 

[comICS-soon]

1)I prefer when the director makes his movie with his vision !
2)Star Wars VI for sure !

Thanx for this giveaway

1) I guess it depends on the movie and what changes they are making. In the Harry Potter series, there were a lot of changes I felt enhanced the story. However, some of the changes from the Hunger Games have been questionable at best.

2) Honestly, I really enjoyed the swordplay in Troy. I thought it was really well done.

I think directors are foolish when they base films on a book and then add artistic license. Not that I think films benefit from this but the directors just open themselves up to a world of hurt.

Sword play has to be star wars purely based upon the fact lightsabers are iconic.

Many thanks for the giveaway.

1) books and movies are two different mediums of art, to expect them to be the same would be like expecting a song and a book to be the same, abstract. That said, I like main elements to be the same when there's literally no reason to change but understand when it has to be done for confines of the medium.

2) Highlander

Thanks

I'm not a book person. So I couldn't tell the difference. So I'm easy going!

Star wars - A New Hope. A nice bit of laser sword play!

Thanks for the giveaway!

I like films to follow the book, some films although they are based on the book only contain a very small amount of the book content

Ron

1) I don't mind either way. As long as the movie tells a good story that makes me care for the characters and want more
2) Swordsman II (old school Jet Li)

 

[justboy]

Thats a difficult one. When films base themselves on obscure books they can get away from with deviating from the source a lot more.

However I do prefer when they stick to the book, otherwise screenwriters should just come up with their own ideas!

For inventive swordplay I did enjoy Pirates of The Caribbean

 

[rj531]

Cheers for the giveaway!

I am ok in deviating from the book to better the film.

 

[toyklectrr]

I like the movie to be as close to the book as possible.

Kill Bill 1 & 2 are my favorite for sword play/fights!!
