May 1st- May 31st

Hey guys, this month the challenge will be a literary challenge. This means that any movie based on a novel, novella, poems and short story will count. Graphic Novels, and Comic Books will not count, but they will be covered in a different month.

The book must be the basis of the movie, and not the other way around. Books spawning from movies, like Star Wars, will not count.

There will be several ways you can earn points
1 point if the movie is based on a book
1 point if it is a First Time Viewing
1 point if the author Cameos in the movie
1 point if the author is a screenwriter for the movie
1 point if the author directs the movie
A bonus point if the author Cameos, Screen writes, and directs the movie


This challenge will also have trifecta points:
Three movies based on books by the same author
Three movies in the same series
Three movies of books you have read

Movies can only be counted for one trifecta and must be watched three movies in a row.
Double and triple trifectas are in effect but can be completed at a later time. It does not have to be right after the first trifecta
Single Trifecta: 3 points
Double Trifecta: 6 Points
Triple Trifecta: 9 points.

At the end of the challenge:
1 point per movie if you have read the book.
A book may only be counted for one bonus point at the end of the challenge. For example, Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2 will only count as one point, since it is only one book.

Grab your spots guys! And have fun!

Iโ€™ve had a couple questions about miniseries. If they are a miniseries like โ€˜ITโ€™ that is pretty much a movie it will count, but if it is like 11.22.63 or Castle Rock, it wouldnโ€™t count because those are more like tv episodes.

Iโ€™m going to say no, simply because itโ€™s based on the movie, not the book. But it should work for the Stephen King challenge!

Hey guys, As we come to the end of the challenge, you may now add a point for every book you have read. Reading the book may only count for 1 extra point, so a movie that is split into two parts, Like IT, or Deathly Hallows would only count for one point since they are only one book!
