Re: I think I figured it out! Here're my thoughts on the books vs. movies debate. I tend to enjoy both, but only if I've seen the movie first. Case in point. I realy liked Jurassic Park when it came out...then I read the book. The book absolutely blew the movie away. If I'd read the book first I would have been sorely disappointed in the film. As it is, I can enjoy both. I'm still looking forward to the LotR movies though because I don't expect them to be all-encompassing. -*-The X Phial-*- You must believe in free will, you have no choice.
