4 Book Series Turned Hit Movies

May 22, 2013 4:02 pm

Some of our favorite book series now have the opportunity to shine on the silver screen. Instead of just imaging these great stories in our minds we now can watch them with our eyes. What's your favorite movie inspired by a book?

Twilight
The forbidden love story has always drawn a lot of popularity, we're still reading about Romeo and Juliet after all. Add in an element of the supernatural and you have a best seller. Teenagers and adults alike couldn't get enough of the love between human Bella and vampire Edward. It only makes sense that this hit series would make it's way to the big screen.

Harry Potter
Before the 7th book came out the Harry Potter movies were already drawing millions of viewers. The story is full of monsters, magic, friendship, and romance. With so much going on it's no wonder why people of all ages couldn't wait to see what happened to Harry and his friends. 

Lord of the Rings
The epic journey to destroy a ring by a group of unlikely allies turns into a cinematic adventure that lasted three movies and prompted the prequel. While devoted fans will point out all the changes the movies made, those of us who didn't find the long books to be interesting can now also appreciate the story. 

The Hunger Games
Young teens and adults devoured the books wondering what would be the fate of Katniss Everdeen as she battles through life in a post-apocalyptic world. There's a love triangle, political undertones, and many battles, sometimes to the death. It's no wonder we're all on the edge of seats wondering what will happen next.

The quality of ingredients, fresh flavors, and playfully modern takes on authentic Indian cuisine are all outstanding. Given wonderful dishes like the Palak Paneer and Chicken Tikka Masala, it's safe to say that this restaurant is one of the most popular Indian restaurants in San Jose.
