Shadowland

Notably happened to me twice; in both cases I saw the movie before I read the book, so maybe there’s a bias. I much prefer the movie How to Train Your Dragon over the book, possibly because Toothless is the reincarnation of my cat.

The other, which I’m more ashamed of, is preferring the movie Secret Window over Stephen King’s novella “Secret Window, Secret Garden.” Johnny Depp nailed the role, but even more importantly, the movie’s ending was fantastic. The novella’s ending made me throw the book against the wall. Sometimes you have to root for the protagonist, even if he’s batshit crazy and an axe murderer, you know?
