Journal 7
One example of a remediation is Twilight. Twilight started out as a series of books and three out of four of those books have been made into movies. I'm pretty sure the fourth book is being made into the next movie along with the other three. Although I haven't read the books myself my mother has. She has told me that the books are much longer than the movie and that the movies don't do the books justice.The story line, along with the personalities, lives, and story as a whole kind of change through the process of Twilight being a book made into a movie.The reviews say that the movies leave out a lot of details that readers feel are important to Bella and the other characters stories. Also they've turned the books into posters and clothing, and numerous other money making, marketing strategies. I understand why a lot is cut out or changed because its a movie. You have to cover a lengthy book in two hours, so producers, or movie creators have to sift through what information is important and what will sell. Love stories always get to the girls and seem to be a big hit typically. The centered the movie around Bella and her relationships.
