The
film was based on the best-selling book, and now the book is sold with
images of the adaptation emblazoned on its the cover. It’s an endless
cycle of one capitalizing on the success of the other.
Here
are some examples of original book covers, and the replacement movie
poster versions. What are your views? Does the movie poster demonstrate
what the book is all about? Does the new art do the original story
justice? Are the famous faces likely to have a positive impact on book sales?

ReplyDeleteI don't know why but I hate buying books with the movie cover on them. I much prefer the original cover. The movie covers seem to date very quickly as well whereas the original covers are usually timeless.
I can't wait to see what's in store for your blog in 2012!

I think in all cases I actually really dig the movie cover.
