What do you like more about the book that you didn't like about the movie?
Books let you experience the events through the character's eyes. I find there's a stronger emotional journey than what usuaully ends up on a movie screen
Do you find the world and character descriptions that you create in your own mind are beter than what can be done on camera?
I think that movies excel at the visuals. Its the emotions that many times are lacking. The difference between experiencing an event (book) and watching someone else go through it (movie).
Do you feel that way about all books verses movies? Harry Potter for Example? Are the movies or the books better?
Harry Potter is one of the few times I enjoyed the movies more than the books. Some fo the later books had a few too many subplots, which the movies were more focused and created a stronger storyline as a result
So your favorite movie is Return of the King. Is there any specific reason why you find that movie to be the best of the LOTR series? Do you think there will be any series as great as thge LOTR trilogy any time soon?
The epicness of the battles were a fitting conclusion to such an epic trilogy. I don't know about new series. It seems like movies are movie towards universes with a whole variety of movies set in them (like Marvel or DC) or remakes/prequels to existing movies
What would you consider to be the top 5 movie trilogies of our time? and how did you base your list on? (cinematic epicness, popularity, gross income)
