The best (or worst) movie adaptations of book scenes? (Sherlock Holmes, etc, anything) (hw help)

Hello everyone, I am having to prepare to write a speech for my literature class concerning the quality of movie adaptations of novels. So I wanted to ask: Do you guys have any adapted scenes that you found remarkable in some way? Preferably a good one, but bad examples are welcome too of course🫡

Maybe a scene from Arthur Conan Doyle‘s canon that often gets left out but you find important? Or a scene that you thought a certain adaptation absolutely nailed or really just butchered? I am specifically referring to specific scenes here and *not* to overall series’ or movies. Please do tell me about what you find remarkable in relation to the original novels, I would really appreciate any help with this as I’d started to look for examples a bit late so I only have today and tomorrow to gather them🧍‍♂️

This doesn’t have to concern Sherlock Holmes, it can also be about Harry Potter, etc., anything really, I just used that as an example since I plan on using Holmes as a reference/example for my thesis anyway.

Fast replies would be much appreciated, as I don’t really have any idea where to even start right now :,)

The Holmes brothers

wanted to challenge myself with this one a bit so this is the result lol I‘m not the biggest fan of how it turned out but I wouldn’t say it‘s bad either🦧

Have I mentioned how intrigued I am by their altering dynamics across the different iterations yet????🥸

Mycroft has this worry about a person who won’t let him help them, no matter what methods he tries to accommodate them with as best as he can, while he had still been the only person who looked out for them for a long time and tried to keep them safe from their own stubbornness and their tendency for self-destructive behavior, he’s got his long nose, his nostalgia through movies, everything, there’s probably more that hasn’t come to mind yet or that I’m not putting into words properly rn, but that about sums up what I find so intriguing about him

and then we have Sherlock, who’s one smart guy👍

(obviously extremely oversimplified and I’ve got so many more thoughts on him too, but you could technically break it down to that)

SHERLOCK AND JOHN IN THE AWESOME TOTTMNT ARTSTYLE :D (or at least my attempt to recreate it :)) )

!BBC SHERLOCK SPOILERS!

(can you hide images on this site in case of spoilers? In this case it‘s a bit too vague to be seriously concerning I think but still🧍‍♂️)

This finale is absolutely crazy
