Frankenthumb
I just watched Frankenthumb on Cartoon Network... It was quite funny. Didn't follow the book at all but it was interesting to watch. Why is it that so many people make short stories, plays, parodies, and other films on Mary Shelley's novel?
I used to love all of the Frankenstein cartoons. I think that it is very easy to adapt the novel into cartoons and movies just because it has a great plot, great morals, a great theme, a wonderful monster, a creepy scientist, etc. It pretty much has everything you need to have a great movie...
ReplyDeleteIt is funny! To answer your question, I feel like Frankenstein is so adaptable that it's hard not to use it in other works. I mean, you've got the genius who creates an evil monster, what more could you want? Great blog!
ReplyDeleteI tihnk that the novel Frankenstein opens up so many doors for being adapted that many people like to use this story for any thing they can. like cartoons, movies, halloween costumes you name it! and they probably have it Frankenstein.
