book vs movie

[Eruwen]

I loved the book. It was sooo good. And for about 6 months I thought the book was better. Until now. I don't know why, but my opinion has somewhat changed.

I mean, yeah. The movie can NEVER even remotely campare to the great wonders of the book. But, personally, I hate reading. It was these books that got me actually reading again. But I think I like watching the story on a tv or theater screen better than seeing it in my head. {If you understand that.}

Anway, my point is, sometimes my imagination doesn't give the book as much credit as it deserves while I'm picturing it in my head. That's why I like watching the movie. Cause it's like I'm seeing Tolkien's imagination come to life and not my own. He can picture it way better than I can. And that is why I like to "watch" the story instead of read it.

Ok. I have talked way too long. If anyone understands what I have said, then you are very smart. Cause I don't think I made a bit of sense. Anyway, I'm done now.
