Strange topic coming from someone who uses 'then' when 'than' is appropriate, or is it?!

Schindler's list. The book is so dull and full of ranks in German army. ...führer this and that... Loved the movie 100%.

I enjoyed the movie of "Maurice" much more than the book. By most accounts the movie of "American Psycho" is much better than the book (which I haven't read). The movie almost sends up the book, which most critics didn't admire anyway.

I thought this book was awful, but really enjoyed the movie! I would also have to say I enjoyed the movie Jaws much better than the book!!

Some movies are hard to compare to the books because they are so different. For instance, The Lost World by Michael Crichton is completely different from the movie!! I liked both!
