Yu-gi-oh Dude Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I watched it last week. It was way too different from the book. In the book it says "Tell her Alan said he was sorry." But in the movie, "Tell her Theodore said he was sorry." In three words, one epic movie. Plus theres one point where the Wardens in a upper-body-shorter-than-a-vest-thing.

cerberus21 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Really old movie. It was meh at best, something I'd watch when I had younger family members over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EliminateHRN Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Is this the movie with Shia Labeouf (sp?)? I liked it, I thought it was pretty good. Never read the book, so I can't compare them. Really good movie. I liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book was definately better but the movie was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all just seems so... childish. Everything from Camp CruelAndUnusualPunishment to Mr. Sir (and even the other adults call him that! Jeez.) and how Zero ended up to be Madame Zeroni's descendant just in time for Stanley (the whole "I'll name all men in my family the same because I like the pun" thing is something to consider on it's own) to redeem his entire family AND find the treasure... Not to mention the fairytale-esque ending. I seriously cannot find a single good point about this book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
