book vs movie

I finished reading Memoir of Geisha last year October, last friday went to watch the movie. I truly enjoyed reading the book with the details, with good description .... movie is a short version and not the same ... I think one who read the book will find reading the book is more interesting than watching the movie .... Next, I'm waiting for 'Da Vinci movie - to test my liking. Currently, I'm reading 'the broker', let see if Hollywood will make this into movie or not ...

Usually a movie adaptation of a book cannot be compared to the book itself. Naturally the book has more details. That's why I love books. And I don't read books that were written based on a movie. Those just sucks.

Books allow a lot of imagination (which is really good). As you know, the reading statistic in Malaysia is very low. The last I heard was 1 - 1.5 page in average per person per year :-(

Saw Da Vinci DVD in one of the mall last month. I didn't get it.
