yeah, because the story can play out in your own imaginated settings and you see more details in your mind and stuff like that.

Too true. And, I don't know...I always just feel so content and out of this world when I'm reading them.
Re: harry potter - CountryGal4132 - 17-05-2008 04:25 PM
yeah, that's what I love about books. You aren't in your world. You are in the world you are reading about. I once saw a movie and the mom was teaching her daughter to read and the daughter was being stubborn. Finally she was like, you don't have to go to the desert and see pirates fight, or live in a castle if you don't want to. Reading is your option. I liked that description of reading because it is so true. It's TV only better.

Definitely.
Besides, they leave SO much out in the movies.
Re: harry potter - CountryGal4132 - 17-05-2008 04:27 PM
I know, the books just can't be perfectly reproduced in movie form.
Re: harry potter - bambigoddess - 17-05-2008 04:28 PM
Never. Now, I would ADORE it if they included every little thing in them. But they'd never do that.
And it'd make for a freakin' long movie.
Re: harry potter - CountryGal4132 - 17-05-2008 04:29 PM
true, which is why books top movies. I do have to say movies do add thier own elements though. Which is why I love seeing and reading both versions.

I like movies and books! They seem so different than what I expect!
Re: harry potter - bambigoddess - 17-05-2008 04:36 PM
Yes, the movies do add something. But still...I'll always love the books more.
