Don't judge a Book by it's Movie!!!
Read the book or see the movie it's kinda the same thing. The only difference is that the book only give of more information and detail that the movie does not have which in a way makes the book more exciting than the movie because the movie only has a certain amount of detail in it.
I'm not saying that movies doesn't cause excitement or that it should not be watched, it's just that I prefer books over movie or sometimes even both.
