^Heh, reminds me of the lifelong confusion I've experienced when people say something along the lines of, "the book is better than the movie". Really? You remember the thing that took you on average anywhere from double to quadruple the hours of life experience to get through, that gave you profoundly more opportunities to project your own identity into it, and demanded much more of a personal investment from you as having had more of an impact on you than the thousand-peopled film industry's adaptation and distillation of the same narrative into an audio-visual form for mass consumption? ... Huh. And to say only that would be to discount all the other differences between the experience of a book and the experience of a movie that could make one "better" than the other. It's quite common to take a shit reading a book. You can start it married and finish it a divorced triple murderer. Well, it's all quite a conundrum to me.
