Question

Have you ever seen a movie that was better than the book? In my experience the book is always better.?

Answer

The book is almost always better because the reader can see the raw emotion behind the characters and nothing is cut out as far as we know D. Movies take creative license with the works and are forced to cut out parts due to entertainment, time amp money constraints. brbrThe two movies that come to mind as being good book to movie productions are The Great Gatsby and more recently Inkheart. brbrIm an avid fan of lots of books and scrutinize the movie versions to no end. The Great Gatsby was fairly close to the book and the way it was filmed catches my breath every time. It helps that its a brilliant story line too but the film was well done and well put together. brbrInkheart...well, a lot was cut out, rearranged and added. But, it got the message of the novel across, stayed close to the characters although I had issues with Brendan Fraser as Moe and more or less was close enough to the plot to make me happy. The extra lines were grin worthy, the acting good all around and I couldnt complain with the extra book references and a few changes in the order of events.brbrSo, yeah, the books are better if youre a book person. Im sure there are some people who prefer the movies because theyd rather be in the middle of it all and have more than one sense aggravated at a time.
