Lawnmower Man because it takes balls to show absolutely no regard for the source material at all.

the orchid thief --> adaptation

because only charlie kaufman can get away with something like that and pull it off so marvelously.

fight club bc it is a good cliche answer (and the ending was slightly better)
best videogame to movie adaptation = super mario bros, bc the koopa troopaz became some weird brickwall walking things and the movie blew

Tony Takitani, because well, it's a short story! How are you going to leave out anything? Which this film didnt.

Forrest Gump. Took the original material, simultaneously cut and expanded on it, and made it much better than the book which is a very hard thing to do.

It was such a great movie, it influenced the writing of the second book.
