The Feature Presentation discussion

Just curious to know what your approach to movies is! Do you read the book first if there is a book or do you just go ahead and see the movie?

I always prefer to read the book before a movie if there is one it gives you more detail and description of what is goin on......sure u already know what to expect but if they missed some detail in the movie and your confused then youll know what it is cuz youve read the book already. Plus sometimes the book is way better!!

i try to read the book first but half the time, if it's not told in the preview or the such, i don't even know it's based on a book until i see it. the book usually gives you the story details better then the movie does so you know what's happening.

i read the book first. sometimes i readthe book, and then a couple of months later it gets turned into a movie.

Lol I either hate/ love it when that happens! Like "Yes JUST in time" or no!!!! My idea of the book is going to be ruined!

No I never do. I make sure I read the book if it's interesting to me.

I try to read the book before the movie, but sometimes I find out that it was based on a book after I have watched it.

hmm yeah I like reading the book first but i still usually like the movie anyway... I loved P.S. I love you and i have just started reading the book.. Also I love the movie I Robot but the book is nothing like book.. But they were both really good..

Oh I lvoed PS. I love you and I don't even think I'm going to attempt to read that book to be truthful. There's a book to the movie I Robot? Do tell!

I love P.S I love you sooo much... And Gerard Butler...

Yeah its really good I have finished it but it was alot different to the movie.. and i mean alot... it was alittle confusing but I still liked it...

Oh, I hate it in the rare case that you read the book afterwards and ur like, "hmmm i prefered the movie" im always guilty when i do that.

It happened with "the Princess Bride"

hmm i heard about that was the movie good??

The movie is absolutely fantastic! It's one of the few movies I can quote verbatim!

hmm maybe i will have to watch it...

Ya life the special effects aren't that good cause it was made a while ago but the acting is superb

hmm i will add it to much list:)

i love The Princess Bride! lol i have yet to read the book, but i think it's somewhere in the house. somewhere...

The book and movie are very similar except they had to cut a few things cause the book was annoyingly long. But I really did prefer th movie

ahnes. 'annoyingly long' XD well i definitely need to read the book. because if i dont it shall forever bug me.

I know that feeling! Like I just realized that Breakfast at Tiffany's was apparently a book by Truman Capote so now I just feel so traitorous about watching the movie with Audrey Hepurn

lol i like that song
