Always go movie-first, if you have the chance. Craig Send a noteboard - 02/09/2009 06:23:46 AM
I can count the number of movies that were better than the books on my fingers. With those odds, you're far more likely to be disappointed by the movie if you've read the book first.

That's my philosophy, at any rate. Your mileage may vary.
I am made of poison.
