Sounds like they should have picked another novel to work from... it's always amazing when people think they can somehow create something incredible from nothing. Almost every adaptation that has been worth it has come from source material, and we have plenty of examples of what happens when they either run out of that or try to deviate from it. Now I am sure there's a few that have succeeded, but I am drawing a blank on what, and it's also very rare.
