Terrible Movies That Were Made From Popular Books (Yardbarker)

"Adapting a popular book into a movie is a risky proposition. No matter how good the film is, some people will always say, 'the book was better.' Even worse, the film could just straight up be viewed unfavorably. Sometimes, even good books are turned into not-so-good movies, many of which also flop at the box office. Here are some unsuccessful movies that were developed from popular books." - yardbarker.com
