BOOKS V/S MOVIES (let us see which one wins)

i prefer books based on more reality in comparison with movies.

I think I like both, but I think I like books more.

A bit of both for me. I find it difficult to sit down and concentrate on one thing for a long time so books are good because I can read a bit and then come back to them but films are good because they tend to take less time! Saying that, I'll often fall asleep during a film even if I'm enjoying it. Of course, if I fall asleep during a book, I know where I got to. I haven't read a lot of books. I've read bits of books but not many all the way through, and I prefer non-fiction when it comes to books. I have, however, read all of the Harry Potter Series and, I think, the books are better than the films, although I still love the films. With books, the author has all the scope they want to create pictures, include details, and is not really constrained by time or budget. Of course, the reader is free to use his or her own mind to see their version of those pictures whereas watching a film, you have someone else's idea and expression forced upon you. So, I think both have their advantages but books do tend to be better than the film of the book.

Books...every time.

I know if you read books then you can imagine every thing how they look and sound and in the movie it's totally different. I have dyslexia so for me reading is not the best thing to do. I choose movies

I prefer books. In reading you create your own world, you make it yours and it is a world many times much more complex than they can show me two hours of film, in the mind of one the actors are always the best, and there is also a level of intimacy with The story that I can not reach with a movie.

As much as I do enjoy both, I might have a slight preference for the books. I will still enjoy the movie, but there is more in the book.

I don't want to make a comparison between the two. I love both...depending on mood. I love books....not novels.

Nothing like a well written book which really enrichs your mind.

I tend to prefer books, although some of the movies are good. Most of the time when I learn a movie is based on a book, it makes me eager to read the book.

Most of the time, the movie is inferior when compared to the book.

During my student days I want my books in movies.i really get tired when I open book..

Again, librarian speaking so some bias here, but the book is always better. Better to stretch your brain with my dear...
