Adaptations,Inspirations and the Likes

Movies nowadays seem to be all about adaptation. All the creativity is being put into picking up the form to adapt into a movie. It does take a lot of effort to pick the right biography, anecdotes, books or even graphic novels! Gone are days where people came up with intelligent puzzles to make thrillers or wrote ‘fictional’ characters that seemed so real. Now we just leave it to Time, someone somewhere will do something seemingly impressive and Viola we got a movie. So writer some where breaks his skull to blissfully form a new protagonist and Bingo we go a movie! Pardon me for being so excited by this new way of making movies, can’t help since the impressive list I made of good movies in the past years looks somewhat like this

(Most of the Oscar 2006)
Brokeback mountain
Munich
Capote
Walk the Line
Elizabeth
North Country
The Constant Gardener
Memoirs of a Geisha
(Now 2007)
The Queen
Last King of Scotland
Departed (though from another movie, adaptation nevertheless)

The Dark Knight
Wanted
Atonement
300

I too like good movies and definitely think the ones named deserve their recognition but hell I would like to see a healthy percentage of original fiction characters, events, stories that I can relate to!
