Movie leaves opposing feelings. - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I regard the movie and the book as two seperate entities, each one a masterpiece in it's own way.<P>I enjoy and look forward to seeing what PJ changes, leaves out or keeps in the movies. I don't mind the changes because I think the changes are pleasantly surprising and applaud the fact that PJ is making the universe his own in a way. I find any deviations from the book interesting and imaginative; rather than running for the high hills and screaming, "Sacrilege! How could he?!", I think that more people should give the guy credit for bringing a version of a complex masterpiece to life.
