I really liked Enders Game movie as well until I read the books. I dunno. Sometimes it seems that the studios are trying to fit a square peg in a round hole with these adaptations.
Another example of a really messed up adaptation: The Golden Compass. Lord of the Rings was kind of messed up, but not too bad. The Hobbit might be entertaining, but the story in the movie is like, wuzzup??
In contrast, Harry Potter and Hunger Games were really good adaptations. I just think that when the adaptation warps the story so much that it hardly resembles the original story, it should cause one to question whether the cinema format is the correct application of the medium.
Take Game of Thrones for example. Can you imagine if they tried to fit the story into a single movie (even the first book into a movie??).
Another example. Dune. Movie was completely screwed up, but the SciFi miniseries got a lot closer to the original spirit of the book.
