Movie Adaptations by Source
Can you guess whether each of the following films was based on a novel, a comic book, a stage play, real events, were they a remake of an older movie, or were they an original idea?
Graphic Novels and Manga count as Comic Books for the purpose of this quiz
Operas and Musicals count as Stage Plays for the purpose of this quiz
Some movies may be based on stage plays, novels, older movie, and comic books that are themselves based on real events. In such cases, the stage play, novel, older movie, or comic book will be the correct answer
Movies based on memoirs or other non-fiction books are, however, to be considered to be based on real life. Novels only count if they are works of fiction (including light novels)
