1984 is objectively better than 1984 though. 1984 misses a lot of things that were originally in 1984.
Haha check out the edge on this guy
Quickly, name films where the movie is better than the book.

I love the movie and book of Jurassic Park-- The movie is a great adaptation of an absolutely kick-ass book.

Most shitty books make good movies but most good books make shitty movies
These are all pretty good examples, especially Jaws. I'd say The Exorcist too but the movie is a pretty direct adaptation.
Clockwork Orange
Even Tarkovsky said this.
That being said, Ivan's childhood
>What is World War Z?
haven't seen the exorcist yet. Worth a watch?
>most of the time
Quite an extensive list you've got there, my man.
I think so. There's nothing in it that's particularly dated aside from a couple special effects. I personally think it's still creepy.
Narnia
great. I'll give it a try
After you watch it check out some of the behind the scenes stories about William Friedkin on set. I love old school directors that don't coddle the actors.
Are you joking?

It's Nineteen Eighty-Four you dolt, get it right.
>old school directors that don't coddle the actors.
you mean like Hitchcock that threw actually crows at the actress while filming Birds?
Exactly. Friedkin definitely took inspiration from Hitchcock's style.
