Do you read the book before seeing a movie?
Posted : 3 Apr, 2012 02:15 PM

There is a new film out called The Hunger Games which looks pretty good. But I think watching a film before reading the book spoils a movie. So I have just finished reading the book and it was really gripping. So glad i read the book before seeing the movie coz i think it would have spoilt it. Does anyone else share this opinion?

Im not much of a reader but I agree with what you're saying. I once read a novel called The Client, by John Grisham. A couple of years later I came across the movie, and I must say the book was WAY better!

:peace:

Every time I read a book before seeing a movie I got disappointed with the movie.



Blessings.

People may bag on Harry Potter all they want, but from the movies in that series I saw, I would say that they were just as good as the books.



And yes, I do read books before watching the movie- except in the case of the Lord of the Rings... I really wished I read the books before watching the movies.
