What I think about the book "I Am Number Four" and how I think the movie should have been made.

 Of course they already made this into a movie, (I haven't seen it yet) but this is my idea of how the movie should have been made. Ok, so obviously they would need a good budget, which can be hard for books to the big screen. Special effects wouldn’t be a real problem, casting would be just like any other movie (unless they cast like they did for twilight), and the 1st person thought process can be fixed with voice over. But the most difficult thing would be making the story sound serious. Aliens are a vastly unexplored topic, very constricted to the certain stereotypical characteristics. They have been engrained in our minds since we started watching bad sic-fi movies and learning about area 51.  If I were the one who made this into a movie, the three scenes I KNOW I would need to keep would most likely be the First part where they are moving to Ohio, the part where John beats the crap out of Mark, and the scene where Henri dies. (Sorry for spoiling) The scenes I would cut would most likely include the part where John runs with Bernie, some of the telekinesis part, and the meatball scene. Even though it is really funny.
