Books vs. Movies

Suggested by: Superfastreader:

Books and films both tell stories, but what we want from a book can be different from what we want from a movie. Is this true for you? If so, what’s the difference between a book and a movie?

I like comparing books and the movies they’re based on. Usually I’m a little disappointed that they left something or other out of the movie, but I understand they can’t include everything. What I really don’t like is when they completely change an event or character from the original story. I really didn’t like how they changed Faramir’s character in Lord of the Rings, for instance. It was a small change, but I hated it because I always admired his character in the book. Occasionally the movie is better than the novel. I like books for the development of the characters, and movies for action and scenery.
