What did you think about...?

If you read the book "Twilight", did you like the movie or did you prefer the book?? I prefered the book to the movie, to me, the movie wasn't close to the book... Just wondering on others opinions...

Update:

Yeah I know... I was going to see the movie but a friend said read the book first because if you don't you'll be lost... And she was right... I prefer the book, always have... But I enjoy the movie putting visual of people now... But to me, they left out stuff that was very important and also took out some of the very good parts that made the book... We're going to start on the third book, can't wait to see "New Moon", hopefully they'll do better on this one but being they are already working on "Eclipse" I have a feeling this one and the rest won't be so good... But for me, the movies are watchable but I prefer the books... Thanks for your opinions...

    I totally love the series, but the movie was okay. I prefer books over movies because there are so many details in the book and you get a better, more vivid pic. I guess movies are good too, but they leave out a lot of stuff from books.

    The book was a lot better since you can use your own imagination to know what things are like, and because it was A LOT more details then the movie!

    you much more detail & a movie is only about

    2 hours long.

    well for me i read the book first. and if i had not i don't think i would have understood the movie. to me i think they made the movie to short, to rushed. i think it should have been a mini series , like some of the stephen king books..
