Top Five Movies episode 060 – Book Adaptations
In honor of the release of Dark Tower, this episode of Top Five Movies focuses on our favorite book adaptations. Jonathan (@berkreviews), Michael (@servermonkey), and special guest Benjamin (@BenjaminH17) discuss their favorite movies from pages. Even though they left off some of the bigger, more expected ones. A few couldn’t be overlooked and made their way onto the list. This episode features a lot of tangents so it goes a little long, but so do a lot of these adaptations.
