[media]http://www.traileraddict.com/content/columbia-pictures/blackhawkdown-2.jpg[/media] The book was interesting but got boring after a while. Once the guys hit the ground in the movie it was non stop action.
Starship Trooper. Mainly because it's a parody of the book.
[QUOTE=yellowoboe;29602098]Yeah. Nedrys death was 10 times better in the book than in the movie.[/QUOTE] My gut felt awkward after reading that part.
The Hobbit, the book is way too fucking long.

Maybe the answer is "none"? Because you can't compare them. Theyre entirely different mediums with different limitations and purposes. The story might be the same, but they are separate.
You can still enjoy one more then the other, but then again people may be biased against either the book, or the movie.
[QUOTE=Hiccuper;29465980]Where the Wild Things are is one of those extremely rare cases where the movie has more content than the book.[/QUOTE] Don't you think it has to do a little with the fact that it is a young childrens book?
[img]http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/images/ezine/0707_Original-SHREK-bookcover.jpg[/img] Yup, it was originally a book. The donkey played much less of a role in the book, and the princess happens to be incredibly ugly and not beautiful, which Shrek is attracted to. Also, there was no Lord Farquaad or anything. Shrek just leaves home and goes off on an epic adventure just because he could.
Forrest Gump and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
Tom Hanks is a god how dare you [editline]12th May 2011[/editline] he MADE the movie as good as it was
[QUOTE=Joz;29493306]The Shining[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=ScootMa;29595882]This one. [img_thumb]http://www.culturegreyhound.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/The-Shining.jpg[/img_thumb] Waaay better then Stephen King's original book[/QUOTE] The movie was terrible compared to the book. Did you even read it? I was honestly baffled as to why the movie was so popular. [QUOTE=Capitulazyguy;29724977]Starship Trooper. Mainly because it's a parody of the book.[/QUOTE] I don't think its a parody but the book was terribly boring and had nothing in common with the movie which kicked ass.
