Julia So how this game works is I you will post a book that is also a movie. Then you have to say whatever you think the book is better or the movie and give a valid reason. More the one person can answer. 20 points for each answer. Thanks to Megharin for suggesting the game.

Jo Drye (jodrye) | 2 comments Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children


The Book Granny (thebookgranny) I liked the books better because I felt like the character building was a little more detailed.


Which did you like better-the book or movie version of Fantastic Beasts?

R.K. (Hajime-chan) | 21 comments Pride and Prejudice.
I liked the book better.

Mary Catelli The Princess Bride.

The movie is better because the book treats the internal story as too fictional and unreal on its own terms.

Percy Jackson: I liked the movie better because it truly made Luke's character play a larger role. Whereas the book threw him in as the bad guy at the very end.

Mary Catelli Howl's Moving Castle

Book better because the movie didn't in fact hold together; they left out a crucial piece of information.


message 9: by Mary (new)

Mary Catelli The Lord of the Rings

Book was definitely better than the animated version, which was whimsical.

I definitely liked the book much better. If you watch the movie before you think "this is awesome" then you read the book and say "the movie is horrible". He movie is nothing like the book. The only thing that is the same is the names. The plot even isn't the same.

Samantha Real Amado | 6 comments Percy Jackson


The book was better. The movie left out so much information. You think the movie is good. Then you read the book. The movie is then, horrible.


message 12: by Mary (new)

Mary Catelli The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

While good, the movie suffered from the attempt to be Lord of the Rings as well as the book.

James (jamescreates) Perks of Being a Wallflower

The film made me a lot less sad, so I prefer that one! Also, Emma Watson!

The Wizard of OZ


message 15: by Mary (new)

Mary Catelli The Phantom Tollbooth. The movie was just tedious where the book had been delightful.


message 16: by Meg (new)

Meg Elliott | 8 comments One thing I absolutely hate about the Harry Potter movies is that they DON'T HAVE PEEVES!!! This is one thing that would have made the movies a lot better, at least for me!


message 17: by Meg (new)

Meg Elliott | 8 comments I also hated the Sea of Monsters (Percy Jackson) movie, like any other sane person. Annabeth has BLONDE hair, Grover DOESN'T look like that, and I hated their design of the camp. Annabeth would have a fit if the REAL Annabeth saw that.

Evelyn Princess Diaries
I loved both, but they were totally different from each other. The movie by itself rocks, but if you're comparing it to the books, you're going to be very disappointed. I personally liked the movies better, but the books were great too

diamy wang (diamyw) The Giver.
I like the book more, because it showed me more of a scientifically advanced but ancient ideas world. However, the movie showed me like 2 gazillion years into the future and the ideas were WAY too advanced.

Sanara♥ (gayumisanara) | 28 comments Percy Jackson. I definitely love the books better! When I watched the movies, I kind of liked them (not good enough to re-watch) but they I read the books and realized that the movies were actaully terrible. :/

As for Harry Potter I love both the books and the movies..same with The Hunger Games.

As for The Maze Runner, I liked the 1st movie but the 2nd one gave a migraine!! The 2nd book were way better...the movie was just..*gags*

hua ‧₊˚.⟢ (190511) The Fault in Our Stars
I've read the book but I haven't seen the movie, I just know there is one


message 24: by Alyson (new)

Alyson Stone (alysonserenastone) | 90 comments Both are good for The Fault in Our Stars, but I think I like the book a little bit better. I feel that Hazel's emotion comes through a little bit better.

What about Divergent?


message 25: by Ilyssa (new)

Ilyssa Guerra | 21 comments Definitely like the Divergent book better than the movie


message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

The 2 Harry Potter book chamber of secrets

Sanara♥ (gayumisanara) | 28 comments The Fault in Our Stars...I do like both but I prefer tge movie.
Me Before You - I love both!

Twilight - The books are waay better. But for some reason, I keep re-watching the movies as well. o.o I think it's a guilty pleaaure movie series for me..

That’s hard I like the books because it gives more details and it’s more pg-13 humor than the movies only being pg.
