With the trend of novels being turned into movies and most of them doing remarkably well, there are a few more coming out this year that I can't wait to watch.
1. The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. I have got to say when I first read this book, I was drawn into the world of Clary and Jace. The world of the Shadowhunters and I managed to finish the series in a week. It was a wonderful and thrilling experience and I just wanted to see it made into a movie. Now it's becoming a reality. The cast of the movie seems interesting and well, I truly can't wait to see how faithful they remain to the book. Releasing August 23, 2013
2. The Host. I first read the book when I was in High School, when the whole Twilight obsession was going on. Stephenie Meyer's writing was different in the Host and I was so glad for it. There were no sparkling vampires and an obsessed girl in love; instead, there was an alien species and a human population fighting for survival. The book made me and my best friend fall in love with the character of Jared (played by Max Irons) and his struggle. Lets just hope they can bring out some of the emotional facets of the characters in the movie. Releasing March 29, 2013
3. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. The Hunger Games novels took everything by storm. A world where people had to struggle for survival and live under a dictatorship seems typical for a post apocalyptic world. But to have a savage game where children have to fight and kill for their survival blew my socks off. The first movie was an amazing hit and truly, I loved the cast and the acting (swoons for Jennifer Lawrence). I can't wait for the second movie! Releasing November 22, 2013
4. Warm Bodies: The idea of a zombie falling in love with a human being and then turning slightly human for her seems ridiculous, but to a romantic like me, the concept seems adorable and despite being slightly gross, it still seems awesome. I can't wait to watch this movie in the theatres (in Singapore) and well, I hope to watch it soon enough. Released February 1, 2013
5. The Great Gatsby: Oh, the decadence of the 20s. The Great Gatsby swept me off into a world with curfews and limitations on everything and yet one man chooses to ignore it all. Gatsby's lavish defiance and his strange eccentricity won me over and I can't wait to watch Leonardo di Caprio steal my heart on the big screen. And I can't wait to see the Big B (Amitabh Bacchan) pull of his magic too. Releasing May 10, 2013
