What would you like to do reading a novel or watching a movie of a novel?
I personally like to read novel than watch a movie of that novel. I think movie made from a novel is worse than the novel. What do you guys think?
Welcome to the straight dope message board. I’ve moved your post to Cafe Society, our place for discussing all things art, including novels and movies.
Hope your enjoy your time here.
I would rather invest two hours in a movie and not like the story than spend countless hours reading a novel and not like the story. I could read a synopsis of the movie or a book review, but I still prefer the movie’s immersive experience compared to just sitting and reading for hours. I’m a movie person, always have been. In fact, I write screenplays in my spare time, so I guess that shows you my bias.
