Movies vs Books

I find that most movies made after a book really let me down, they just don't capture the characters in the book like I wish they would.   I do however really like most of the Harry Potter movies and I also like the books. 
   The Tuck Everlasting movie is MUCH different than the book and has a totally different ending, for that reason I am not a big fan of the movie.
  Let's make this a post about comparing movies and books of the same title.  Please tell us the name of the movie / book and tell us which one you liked more and why?  Of course other people are encouraged to write back to you and offer opinions about your choice in a RESPECTFUL way.
   Have fun!

    1. Gabe I agree! When I read a book I can imagine all sorts of things, but in a movie sometimes it looks very fake to me.

  3. All of the Harry Potter books are WAY better than the movies. In the movie, so many important details were left out.

  6. The harry potter movies includes most of the parts that are in the books. However I think that it misses out a lot of details. Books also tend to be more descriptive than movies

  15. I enjoy watching a movie more than reading the book, Then again if the movie is BAD, and it doesn't capture all the important details, the books are better
