Divergent Movie Countdown!

Wooo! The Divergent movie is out next month. Crazy, right?! That went by so super fast. I have mixed feelings about it. I really enjoyed the book (as most did) and I'm excited they are making a movie. BUT...I can't help but feel a little nervous it won't live up to my expectations. Almost all YA book-movies have left me feeling unsatisfied. Obviously the book is always better, so why do I keep hoping I'll get something new and awesome from these movies? I don't know. The Harry Potter people nailed it. Catching Fire was surprisingly edge-of-my-seat good. I hope this is one of the good ones and not a Twilight flop.

  1. I've pretty high expectations from Divergent because the book is such a wild adrenaline-pumping ride. The wait is not that long now! =D

  2. Just keep expectations low and maybe you'll be surprised.

  3. I am looking forward to this one, but I haven't read the book in a while and hope that that helps with enjoying the movie more, as it's less fresh on my mind. We'll see though. Fingers crossed!

  4. The trailer looks fantastic, so hopefully they've managed to keep the actual movie fantastic, too!

  5. I saw the trailer in the theater and was totally knocked out. But I'm still nervous it will be another disappointment. I think the story will translate well to the big screen as long as it's done properly (please-please-please).
