I actually quite liked 'Bicentennial Man'; the story made me cry and although the Robin Williams film was in no way the film of the book (or at least only vaguely), it was entertaining and enjoyable in it's own right.
Haven't read Stardust but loved the film.
And, of course, 'The Princess Bride'. I only read the book a couple of years ago. Since I was about 6 years old I had believed that there was a real book called the Princess Bride by S.S. Morganstern. There was much crying in my flat when I eventually finished.
Similarly, my partner had gone all the way through 'Memoirs of a Geisha' thinking it was a 'true biography' and was a bit miffed when I had to gently explain otherwise. No tears though.
Will doubtless be back again (again) when I remember more....
