Tolkein's works are another example of this - his world was so expansive that you would never be able to put it all into a film unless you were looking at 20+ hours of film, but by making the films they allowed people to access the story that many never would otherwise.

I think they did a pretty good job in the main on both LOTR and The Hobbit trilogies.

The Hobbit films are virtually unmatchable bore fests. The book is more accessible, not too long.
