OT kind of: What book-to-movie Adaptions You Want Redone

Each of these movies strayed off either slightly or by a mile from the content and plot of the book. You can list it however you want. Mine in no particular order
City of Ember
Inkheart
Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief and Sea of Monsters
Eragon

I disagree with redoing the Percy Jackson films. I thought they were done great. They both had all the great parts of the books and added their own spin. Besides the movies will never be exact copies of the books, as long as they have some of the best parts of the book, I think its fine.

True but after seeing the great adoptions of Harry Potter and Sorcerer's stone/Chamber of Secrets, Lord of the Rings, Catching Fire, and Divergent(there are others as well) you can see how disappointing both movies were.

They both had all the great parts of the books and added their own spin.

In Sea of Monsters, they skipped pretty much everything about being in the Sea of Monsters. They totally left out Kronos hints and only mentioning Great Prophecy and then completely botched Kronos' introduction.
