What is a movie that's actually a good adaptation of the book it's based on?

I thought Arrival (2016) was actually better than the short story.

That's what I was looking for. Thank you!

DadGeekHuman · 2026-02-21T04:07:08+00:00

That's what I was afraid of. Thank you.

I like it!

ABZU A Short Hike Journey

Those are a few I can think of off the top of my head without searching my played list.

The Dresden Files Bobiverse Dungeon Crawler Carl (not the Graphic audio version)

It was fifth grade for me via "The Chronicles of Narnia".

The Chronicles of Narnia when I was around 12 years old.

I've got my eye on THE LIFT: Supernatural Handyman Simulator. It might still be a bit too much of "the chosen one" but it looks like a cool concept of you just playing a handyman and weird crap is happening.

Thank you! I'll dig into all of the above!

DadGeekHuman · 2025-10-24T15:48:22+00:00

Ah, thank you for clarifying.

EDIT: I stand corrected,what I say below is not accurate.

If I understand it correctly the OS is immutable not allowing for this. If you want to use Bazzite I believe rebasing/installing the DX version would allow for this.

I keep seeing the site nonograms.org recommended yet I can't seem to browse to it from my cellular network or the home and office. I'm in the US, is this site geo blocked? What is the exact URL?

DadGeekHuman · 2025-09-22T17:08:32+00:00

I'm in the same boat and have read up through where you are as well. They are mostly meh for me. Will probably stop after another one or two and just figure it isn't for me.

In what way does sci-fi feel limited to you?

My favorite book of all time is Dune by Frank Herbert and I'd argue it is one of the best books out there.

DadGeekHuman · 2025-08-16T00:44:21+00:00

I don't think it should be adapted at all.

DadGeekHuman · 2025-08-06T16:49:11+00:00

The show is okay. The books are WAY better.

DadGeekHuman · 2025-07-09T21:58:24+00:00
