Matt Steinmetz Mrs. London English 5H 30 January 2018 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone book and movie comparison There are many differences between the book and movie, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. The theme, plot, and characters from the book and movie are importantly different. Harry has many different adventures and nick nacks that people don't know about. The theme of the book isn't very different from the movie because of many reasons. Harry still shows us the meaning of being a true wizard. Learning to stick to your goals in life without giving up. This is same in both the movie and book. Harry also shows us to stick with your gut in both the movie and book. Harry accomplishes things he never knew he could on he realized

    For example, Mama goes to the bank in the movie and is given a hard time about paying her mortgage, but this did not happen in the book. Another major difference is that the school bus scene, where the Logan kids played a trick on the white kids, was not shown in the movie, even though it was an important part of the story. There are some character changes as well. Lillian Jean, Jeremy, R.W, and Melvin are Simms’ in the book, but in the movie they are Kaleb Wallace’s children. However, the main plot difference is how the movie starts in the middle, summarizing everything from the first part of the book very briefly. Additionally, many scenes are switched around and placed out of order. Altogether, the plot and character changes contribute to my unfavorable impression of the

    Usually movies try to take the story to a different level or by adding parts or just try to change it to a completely different story. Some of the differences between the movie as to the book are some little and large differences. They might also try taking little parts away that will change how the readers see the story characters. An example of that would be Walter not smoking in the movie (Pg 115). Walter usually smokes because he is stressed or just as a way to relax. Walter also does not get punched by Mam...

  • Differences Between Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief

    690 Words  | 2 Pages

    One of the big differences that stood out to me specifically was how Luke and Percy did not even battle each other for the bolt in book but in movie they used the bolt against each other to get it. In the book Luke stole the bolt and gave it to Ares so Percy would fight him. On the other hand, in the movie Luke and Percy brawl it out for the bolt(Rick Riordan). My feelings toward the two not fighting in the book are not good. Them not making the two fight in the book made it less interesting because why would you have Luke give it to someone else so that person can fight Percy. Stunningly they didn’t fight and I was a bit surprised by this by this. Another big difference that I noticed was was how in the book Percy was given three pearls to get out of the underworld but in the movie they must find the three pearls throughout the book. I like the movies interpretation of this because it makes it more interesting for me because it made it more of journey instead of having the pearls given to him. All Percy had to say was “ Where are the pearls that I have been promised.” (Rick Riordan) which wasn’t as interesting has them fighting monsters to get

    One major difference in the movie that was not in the book was the starting scene of the movie was set in the moor with Sir Charles being attacked by the Hound. In the book the starting scene was when Watson and Holmes had just found a walking stick that had the initials C.C.H. on it. I think that the movie starting scene was more informative because it let you know about what was happening and it also gave some more suspense to the film.
