Lord Of The Flies, Eye Opening, Thought Provoking, Stays With You Long After The Credits Roll

One of my top ten favourite books ever has to be Lord Of The Flies, the reason being is I love a good book that makes you think long after you’ve read the final chapter Lord Of The Flies does exactly that, for those who are unfamiliar with this story then never fear I will tell you.

The book follows the story of a group of boys who crash land after a plane crash on a deserted tropical paradise, the boys then come up with the plan whoever holds a conch shell gets to talk, you can see where this is going can’t you, anyway it doesn’t all go to plan and the boys split up in to two different camps, one camp wants to try and get off the island while the others want to hunt and kill, the theme is simple… no matter how old you are we will all at some point go back to the cavemen days, even children.

Now there are two adaptions one in the sixties and the other in the early nineties, the sixties adaption is true too the book whereas the nineties adaption strays from the source material with minor detail, instead of World War Two evacuees they are military school boys, the sixties is by far the most superior to the book, but don’t get me wrong the nineties version is good while it may have its flaws it’s still pretty enjoyable even if it does stray off from the source material it is adapted from. The reason why I’m reviewing this particular movie is because Hollywood is making an all female version of the film.

Yes…. yes you heard me Hollywood are making an all female version of the film, just like they did with Ghostbusters, which to be fair I enjoyed, but this however I’m having a little bit of a hard time progressing this, I mean it’s a good idea but is it really necessary, I mean don’t take this the wrong way and I mean absolutely no offence by this but why does Hollywood need to remake everything all female…. I don’t mean to offend anyone but that’s my opinion you can hate me in the comments but please keep it clean (I am still a person) now that’s been said what do you think about this, especially book lovers like myself, let me know, but until next time guys catch ya later 🙂
