So many i haven't bothered to watch and the ones i have seen i've thought to be merely okay such as the Harry Potter or The Hunger Games series, as it's just not my thing.
Not seen Dumbo, Dr. Dolittle sucked, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory adaptations don't come close to the brilliance of the book.
