Movie Novelization

A novelization is a novel that is written based on some other media story form rather than as an original work.

Novelizations of films usually add background material not found in the original work to flesh out the story, because novels are generally longer than screenplays. Similarly, material from the screenplay or filmed scenes that are cut from the final production may still be present in a novelization, often because the novel is completed for publication while the film is still being edited for release.

The novelization designs are more often than not that of the film posters.










These covers are not appealing to me or most movie goers. They tend to cater towards those who are passionate about the film itself. There is no reason these designs could not be better and that the novels could not outshine the movies themselves.
