My partner Jane and myself chose to discuss the remediation of the novel Holes, by Louis Sachar, into the movie that was directed by Andrew Davis. Remediation that is being performed with this topic is complete absorption of the other type of media. We chose to discuss this topic solely because we both had read the book and have seen the movie. To research the topic we did a google search and found the author for the novel and the director for the movie. From there we identified the difference in years from when the book was published (1998) and when the movie was released (2003).

Discussing and researching the remediation of the movie Holes demonstrated to us that once a novel has been produced into a movie, it becomes more of an interest for people. To have the ability to go watch a movie instead of reading a book can be the best thing ever for some people, like myself. All though there can be many arguements on whether reading the novel was more or less worth-while for consumers. The movie had allowed viewers to watch the story as the author and director would of how the author and director would of liked to pursue it.
