I think mine’s Z for Zachariah. The book is insane. A psychological survivalist thriller between a 14 year old girl and a strange man with unknown intent. The movie is… not this. They changed everything meaningful about the characters and lost all the tension. Hope someone does it properly one day. What’s your adaptation peeve?

    honestly for me the martian was quite disappointing. it had none of the explanation and humor from the book!! that’s the essence of it!

      I don’t know what movie you watched. I thought the Martian was one of the better adaptations I’ve seen. They lifted entire chunks of text from the book to use for dialogue!
