Yeah, but that's part of the problem. Adaptation to screen requires creating a manuscript to match. Usually a lot gets left out, bastardized and/or homogenized.

Also writers in Hollywood are severely abused creatures (similarly to the "Call of Duty" mines in gaming), who get micromanaged and edited to death - so that also stands to reason.
