Both the book and the movie Jurassic Park were riddled with inconsistencies, but they were still great.
I never read Jaws, but I heard it was terrible book. That's one of the rare cases in which most people will say the film was better than the original.
Somebody mentioned that cartoon of The Hobbit? That was a crime again literature. Absolutely horrible. I enjoyed it because I found it hilarious.
Fight Club was a great movie and a better book, just because of some of the things they flipped around and choices of ommited scenes. It handled the ending a little better too, I think.
I enjoyed the film LotR trilogy a lot, but I'll agree that it hyped it all way too much. The Harry Potter series has been decent so far, but I never saw the third one (not that I didn't want to, I just never did).
I got used to books-turned-movies leaving out scenes or exercising a little "creativity," but when they totally change things, I get ticked. Like in the Two Towers, how they changed around Faramir's character. They made him seem really evil, and I really didn't like it. He was actually my favorite character, so that aggravated me.
