I just finished reading this book and am going to watch the movie either today or tomorrow. Which do people prefer, I'd like to know? |

i must say i prefer the soundtrack most |
||||||||

I'll give that a listen. |

all 3 are great (book, movie, soundtrack). i too read the book first. one of my favorite books and movies. you're in for a treat! *gets all nostalgic* i was not much older than you when i read that book... *wipes a tear from my eye* |

Book. I think the movie missed out on some important themes in the book. Still a nice good shocking movie, though. |
||||||||

the book has been sitting on my shelf for like 2 years and i still havent read it because i have so many other books to read first. howver the soundtrack and movie are very well done. |

the movie leaves out the last chapter of the book..... (if the version you read had the full 21 chapters?) there were (at least) two versions published - the one with 20 chapters was the (first?) US version. i think. |

i READ the book first.......good job! then saw the movie......which is a masterpiece IMO. i liked the book better.....but had i seen the movie dunno if i'd say that...... *sits on fence* |

Comparing books to movies is ridiculous. apples / oranges Enjoy the movie. |

read the book first too. without having a small dictionary in the back - the best way to read it, imo. book is better, as usual. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
both are A+.. it's hard to say which is better... |
||||||||

Read the book, saw the flick. I like the movie better. I think it's just because Kubricks vision for the story is better than the vision I whipped up when reading it. *slooshies soundtrack* |
||||||||

I did not have the dictionary, but did have the 21st chapter. |

Oh, and, I enjoyed the book more. Movie good nonetheless. |

yeah, the book was great.. one of my favorites.. i think i liked it better than the movie, overall.. which is also one of my favorite movies.. the parts of the soundtrack i've heard are swell also.. the intro music in that movie is the best ever.. the big moog stabs as it flashes the title and then pans through the korova milk bar...gives me chills every time |

read it, watched it, heard it..in that order.. |

Allthough its a good movie, its heavy to watch it. I really felt tired afterwards. Maybe becauseit isn't one of these mass-product movies we see nowadays? |

i really enjoyed the book. the movie's pretty good too. |

hahaha MachineofGod you sound JUST like me. :) Ive read some of the book (but got distracted by lots of my other unread books!) but I adore the movie. :) Great acting, very intense scenes. |
||||||||
|

the book is definetely better than the movie. The certainly lacked a few needed things. Still one of my favorite movies though. And do indeed check out the soundtrack. Try and find the 10 track version. It has full versions of the songs rather than the other version that contains songs aside from those by Wendy Carlos, and some of the songs are also shorter... |

I feel so left out, I havent even seen the movie, let alone read any of the books I never got around to watching it, I should check it out as it sounds really awesome from what you all say |

ok, well i suppose what i'm going to say will make people want to tolchok me in the litso, but i don't really give a toss. I think people who say they dont need to know the meaning of the nadsat language are full of shit. The book is so terribly confusing by it, and even if you can guess some meanings of words there's still too much you will be wondering about throughout the rest of the book. However, I don't see this as a bad thing at all. The word list wasn't written for no reason. "What's it going to be then, eh?" |

its a pile of overrated shit. if the book is good, don't rruin yourr opinon of it by seeing the film. i saw it on the rre-rrelease, so i guess it was all the hype that rruined it. i wasent imprressed. |
