What one do you like better?The book or movie?
Good question Sunflower ... difficult too. I'd say it depends Star Wars A New Hope ( @TheSkaFish that is the first one right? ) is a fantastic movie but I don't think the book would be all that entertaining same with Jaws, I actually read that and it was honeysuckle, whereas the books of Stephen King and Alan Moore to name just 2 authors are far superior to the film adaptations.
Every time I see Leia saying "Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope" it brings a lump to my throat I don't think in the book it would, as it'd be me saying it in my head.... she sez it in the book right?Yeah, right on. In fact that's an example I was thinking of where the book is a little different from the movie.
Not in a major way, because the thing with Star Wars is, it was always intended to be a movie from the get-go, unlike say Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter. But there is more detail in the book - mostly little stuff though, not major plot points.
I did enjoy Star Wars as a book actually - but, I'm not exactly impartial
this is tough, because I like both. Except for maybe Lord of the Rings where the movies were better cause I don't think I'd want to sit through Tom Bombadil's singing.
NoooooBut he's Tom Bombadil, Bombadillo!
That’s a shame. Books can be so richly descriptive. How do you go sitting through a whole movie then?movies only ... can't read books because of ADD
I have to watch it many times but still easier than booksThat’s a shame. Books can be so richly descriptive. How do you go sitting through a whole movie then?
