Book 'em or Watch 'em

Justin · 10-23-2009

Ladies n gentlemen, do u enjoy reading a book regarding any subject or watch it as a movie?

For instance, i read months ago a book called "Angels and Demons". Then 5 days ago, I watched the movie. I was really disappointed cause the movie didn't carry the taste of applying the imagination or the idea that I had in mind regarding some important scenes or scenarios.

what about you? do u read? if so, what do u enjoy the most? reading a book or watching its movie??

not a fan of books, until yesterday, i found a book called the alphabet of manliness by Maddox (www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net), it's a funny book with a loooot of sarcasm.

what a book gives u (specially in adventure books) is the power to imagine the world the author's describing, it also gives u sleep (i read Lord of the Rings books b4 i go to sleep, makes me sleepy so deghreh beghfa

) well anyways it's nice to do both, they each have their advantages and disadvantages.

PS: a book also gives out more Info than a movie (loads more to help u comprehend the story, which i'm sure helps the ppl workin on the movie of that book

)

A book is always better. A two hour movie will never b long enough to summarize the whole book and no actor/actress, no matter how good, can portray all the aspects of a character in a book...

All that being said, its been ages since I read a fiction book (the last one being 'Bleak House') and I rarely see movies these days...
