There are very few movies that are better than the books they were adapted from. No irony. I can only think of one or two off the top of my head. Jurassic Park, the movie is better than the book. And the walking dead show is WAY better than the comics. Holy shit those comics are awful.

Forest Gump was way better than the book.

Fight Club followed the book pretty well.

Haven't read either of them so I didn't want to bring them up, but I've heard that a few times.

Virtually all of them. The exceptions tend to be when the book came second.

Every single fucking one. I could never get into the Godfather films for some reason, but the book hooked me on page one with the explicit sex scene.Literally locked myself indoors for two days until i finished it. Books are pretty much always better. The only exception to this rule is A Clockwork Orange. I fucking hated the book, but the movie really drew me in. Also possibly Requiem for a Dream. I enjoyed the book but it wasn't anything special whereas the movie was brilliant. It was well shot, had a great, unique style to it and managed to retell the same story while keeping it fresh (by adding a character that helped explore the themes of the book and tie it all together a bit more) while trimming the fat. The book is a lot more brutal though.
