Why people are split
Book-first people want to picture the story their own way before a casting director does it for them. Movie-first people say a good film makes them want to read the book, and the book then feels like bonus scenes.
How people voted
The live split shows on the card as soon as you vote. The vote count appears here once 50 people have voted.
A fun poll that anyone can vote in, once per device. It's not a scientific survey.
FAQ
Should you read the book before the movie?
If you care about spoilers, yes. Many people find the book richer once they already know the story, so both work.
Why is the book usually better?
A book has room for inner thoughts and side plots that a two-hour movie has to cut.
