The Book Is Better - Book to Film Adaptation Reviews

In a shocking twist, Rebekah turns on everything she's ever believed (sort of...). The family discusses the differences between the hit movie Oppenheimer and the Pulitzer Prize-winning book that inspired it: American Prometheus.

Spoiler alert: Biographies turned into films make for fascinating discussions.

Featuring hosts Tim Haynes, Donna Haynes, Rebekah Edwards, and T. Josiah Haynes.

What's so special about this story that gave it a book series, a TV miniseries, a stage play, and a movie?! The family of 4 discusses major differences between The Hitchhiker's Guide book and the 2005 film.

They also share their thoughts on the major cult fandom spawned by the book and surprising trivia around the entire IP (including a quirky but not-so-shocking nude guest appearance of a critical part of the franchise).

We've got a lot of thoughts about President Coin, the "sanitized" PG-13 version of this haunting trilogy conclusion, and how we're so excited they added Effie to the final two movies! The family reviews the adaptation of Mockingjay to a two-part film and determines if the book is truly better this time.
