There were a couple of movies that I actually preferred over the books, and I'd say in both cases because I thought the movies made the characters more sympathetic than the books.

Maybe it depends on if you see the movie first or the book?
I would say that would have to be few in number tho. For me, that's the only one that really springs to mind. Most times, if I know a movie is coming out and I haven't read the book, I'll hoid on the book until I see the movie. Book first is usually a disappointment when the movie comes out. Maybe if I had read What Dreams May Come first, I would feel differently about the movie.
Another example, not movie related would be the Dexter TV series. That show blew the books out of the water, I told people if I were the author, I would be mad that they wrote a better story than me.
