The Mysterious Benedict Society discussion

What are your thoughts on the first book?

I love the beginning it is so mysterious!! And the end makes be so happy!! The whole time I was on my toes!!

This book seriously needs to be made into a movie.

Mmm, I don't know about that... I think that it has too much to live up too. Like with the Hunger Games I can see that in a movie because has a pretty basic setting. This setting you would need an entire island basically! XD What actors/actresses would you have play the people?

Oooh, good question. I don't know many kid actors who could play those parts. I think...maybe... Mandy Moore as Rhonda. Other than that, I don't know.

Maybe Abigail Breslin as Kate. She would have to straighten her hair though...

I don't know!! I kind of agree with Frances because this book is a little complicated for a movie, look at Percy Jackson that was complicated and the movie slaughtered it!! But I do think Abigail Breslin would be good as Kate!! Did you guys like Hunger Games?
(Just randomly asking!)

Yes!! I loved the books and I saw the movie and it stayed pretty true. I liked it!

Yeah they were pretty good at keeping most of the the parts of the books in the movie. Except of course not including Madge Undersee!!1

they didnt really explain district 13 in the movie.

I don't understand why this series isn't a movie!

I talked to Trenton Lee Stewart and he said he was trying to get someone to make a movie of it.

OH no! no movie! I prefer this series just as it is. But maybe that's just the hipster coming out in me.

I don't think a movie would be good. I mean I have this stuff in my imagination and I don't want them to ruin it. It would be cool to see it on the screen though

It’s a TV Show on Disney +. They have season 2 for the second book too.o
