When comparing movies to books, personal preference plays a significant role. Books offer depth while movies provide visual enhancements and adaptations may lead to differences.
In the case of adaptations, changes are often made to fit the medium, which can result in differences between the movie and the book. These alterations may affect elements like pacing, character arcs, or the overall message of the story.
One example is 'The Lord of the Rings' series where both the books and movies have their merits. The books provide extensive lore and detail, while the movies visually bring the fantastical world to life, showcasing epic battles and stunning landscapes.
