I actually asked a lot of friends that are good to very good readers about that. And some saw a movie and some did not (maybe 20-30% saw a movie). So there seems to be two different reading "styles". One is the very visual one were the reader see a movie. The other is probably more based on language, relations and similar things. I do not see a movie and when reading I build up the world in my head adding new facts. I am also more mathematical/logical oriented than visually oriented.
