    If it’s “Lord of the Rings”, I would rather watch the movie too. The same for ANY Dickens book. The man was payed by the word!

    I can’t read Dickens. I tried! He uses 14 sentences when 1 will do fine.

    We do these things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

    (paraphrasing Kennedy and all)

    Besides, Holly, you’ll get busted when you talk about parts where the film adaptation differs from the book.

    Not many movies measure of to the books they are based on. The movies would need to be MUCH longer to capture all the detail. (Thinking Stephen King here.)

    someone did that once in my class for To Kill a Mockingbird! It was so funny as the movie left out a number of bits asked in the exam!

    My one exception to the ‘book is better than the movie’ rule is Stephan King’s ‘Misery’. The movie won the battle hands down. I credit Cathy Bates for that.

    I want this comic in animation form from now on, because reading is clearly overrated and all that ;-)
