It's Appeal to it's Audience


This movie was originally a book, which was very successful and well known. It was then adapted into a movie which was also successful. Poeple who are familair with the books are more likely to go and see if a movie of it if they have read to, as they are intrigued at how the characters, setting and plot devleops visually. When someone reads a book, they are left to imagine it themeselves in their minds, but now they can see how it was betrayed by a production company. Book adaptations are very successful, with the likes of The Hunger Games, The Twilight Saga, and Harry Potter becoming global boxoffice takers by signifacnts amounts.
