Jake and Pete crack open one of their most thoughtful Top 5s yet — favorite movies adapted from novels. From Middle-earth to the Overlook Hotel, from Chicago record stores to dystopian organ farms, the boys dig into what makes a great adaptation: faithfulness to the page, bold reinvention, or something in between

There’s Tolkien reverence. There’s Kubrick controversy. There’s Dune discourse (again). Pete stands firm on loyalty to the source material, and Jake argues for the power of the cinematic swing.

If you love books, movies, or heated but friendly transatlantic debates about both — this one’s for you.
