"The book is always better than the movie," says Vinny.
"Wow!" I say, trying to wrap my head around the words coming out of the 8-year-old's mouth.
"I saw 'Harry Potter and the Goblett of Fire,' and the characters weren't as good as the ones in my head, when I read the book," says Vinny.
Maybe there are some exceptions to his statement, but I can't think of any, can you?
But if the book is just so-so, I'd rather watch the movie, than read the book. A so-so book will take forever and ever to read, whereas the movie will be over in two hours or less.
Take the case of "Twilight," the Movie, I watched it last summer, in one night! Amazing, I know.
Now "Twilight" the book, well, let's just say I've been stuck on page 220 for two weeks. Maybe I shouldn't have watched the movie, first.
And now I'm stuck with all their lame visuals, except Eduard, he's a very good visual. Vampires are so hot.
Don't even get me started on the HBO series True Blood, which I believe is based on a series of books. OMG! talk about scorching, hot vampires!
If the books are anything like the series, then there has got to be a lot more sex scenes than Twilight, which at zero, so far, won't be hard to beat...............
