Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 2,134 Rep Power: 10 | My mom used to call her vagina a monkey when I would be like "PUSSY" or "VAGINA" etc. xD
So in my mind that means "NICOLE Kidman slapped her vagina?"
Anyways, I heard it was really good, I have not seen it yet but I do want to.
I want to see the new batman before I see anything though -has to save money for tickets- xD

You'll always be disappointed with the movie if you've read the book.

though i liked the movie in general.
haven't read the book, that might have changed my opinion.

WHY do people watch these movies after having read books and expect the same thing? If movies and books were portrayed the same way, we'd be a society that either JUST watches movies OR reads books, but doesn't do both. You put the same content into two different media, and what do you get? DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS!!!!!! People who read Wicked wasn't asking for the script-writer's head on a plate after Fiyero DIDN'T DIE in the musical. Shit, grow up. ~Zen | |

That aside, if the interpretations of the books and movies were the same, what makes you think people wouldn't see both? If they were a fan of what they read, then sometimes it's nice to see it acted out. I'm not saying like, exact, word for word. But seriously, most interpretations are not only completely different from the book, but suck.
