I agree about the Giver. On the one hand it was underrated and an okay adaption. On the other hand, making the romance explicit rather than just the starts of attraction on Jonas' part from no longer taking the pills kind of ruins the subtly of the books. I didn't entirely mind the aging up, but I felt the actor they chose for Jonas was kind of bland and not what I'd picture even for an older Jonas.

Yeah, I was kind of torn. Overall I actually think the movie is really brilliant and a lot of the added scenes are really interesting (not being tied to Jonas's POV, so more opportunity to explore gov't people and whatnot). I guess I'm not inherently against aging up characters, but it just gave it more of a YA genre feel to me, especially with the romance.
