Anyone ever read a movie novel that ended up being better than the movie itself?
>pic very much related. Almost done with Retribution by John Shirley. Didn't realize until later that almost all 6 Resident Evil films have a film novelizations. Thought I'd give them a go and there actually pretty good. Extinction has been the best so far.

I was pleasantly surprised by 'Rain Man', the novella.

Anything in the novella that was humorous or made you laugh? I like humor in my novels.

It was more touching than anything, so it might not appeal to your own particular tastes. I had Dustin Hoffman's eponymous portrayal of Raymond Babbitt in my head as I was reading it.

I really like the stargate novels, but I read those when I was a kid, so maybe there's nostalgia playing into it too. There are some good alien vs predator novelizations too.

I have to ask what makes these books readable to you.

The revenge of the sith novelization was pretty good. Made the plot make more sense and fleshed out the characters, especially Anakin.

I don't think you understand the question. He's asking about books based on movies, not books that movies are based on.
