fall movies from books

The folks over at Book Riot created a list of the top 12 fall movies from books.  I.... disagree with their order.  So here is the list and below is my list.  Clearly The Great Gatsby would be at number one.  But considering it's now being released in 2013..... We all have the same thoughts on the last Twilight movie.

Book Riot's List
12. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2
11. Les Miserables (Dec. 14)
10. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (Dec. 14)
9. Atlas Shrugged, Part 2 (Oct. 12)
8. Alex Cross
7. Wuthering Heights (Oct. 5)
6. Anna Karenina (Nov. 16)
5. Lincoln (Nov. 16)
4. On The Road (Dec. 21)
3. The Perks of Being a Wallflower
2.  Life of Pi (Nov. 21)
1. Cloud Atlas (Oct. 26)


I've redone the list.  I put stars next to the ones I have no idea about.
