Speaking of that last line...I haven't read the Walking Dead comics, but I have seen enough about them on various wikis and things to know that I HIGHLY prefer the TV show.

I thought the Gone Girl movie was a very good adaptation of the book, but then the book's author wrote the screenplay.

I like the LOTR movies better than the books, although I am upset about what the movies did to the Ents and to Faramir/Eowyn. The Ents were all badass in the books and didn't need time to be all "Huh, should we go kick Saruman's butt or not?" They just did it. And ugh, what they did to Faramir made him unworthy of Eowyn.

Least favorite is one of the recent Mansfield Park movies. It says Fanny is a "spirited" heroine. Hahahahahahahahahahahaha. No.

Ooooh, also another favorite is Baz Luhrman's Romeo and Juliet! :)

Which I guess goes to show my point - the staying true to the source or reinterpreting it depends on how it's done. Like pretty much everything - there's no hard and fast rule and it just depends on context and quality and stuff.

Also I really don't think that the person who makes my schedule at work has any idea about traffic or how long it takes to do a tour or where my stops even are in relation to each other.
