I love reading and I love watching movies. So it’s a tough call when you hear they are making a quadrilogy of movies based on a series of 3 books that you really want to read.
To read first or not to read?
Can I wait for the movies to actually hit the big screen before succumbing to the books?
Harry Potter = Read the Books first
Twilight = Read the Books first
Lord of the Rings = “Kind of” Read the Books first
Anything by Stephen King or John Grisham = Read the Books first
The Hunger Games = Time to give the screenwriters a chance to Shine 🙂
My verdict?
Not knowing anything about the plot of the movie… I loved it and thought the story performed really well on the big screen. Thoroughly entertaining and compelling and emotional. Oh yes… I cried even as the crazy lady was pulling Primrose’s name out of the bowl. 😛
But at the end of the day, I pay to be entertained and entertained I was 🙂
Now I am super excited to finally get around to reading the books… and I can tell you I will be reading book 2 and 3 before waiting for the movies to be released!!
