for me if i see a certain film it makes me want to read the book at times. or if i read the book i do want to see the film and depending on who makes it there have been times that i have dissapointed sorry for my bad spelling lol. here's a couple of examples i thought the film was better, the godfather i love the film to death and i saw it before i read the novel. and i went in with really high expectations but while i thought it was a good book
the film was actually better. i'm a big Stephen King fan and he's my favorite author in fact i'm reading Sleeping Beauties at the moment. and it's pretty good so far too.
anyways, my last book i read was Pet Sematary i'm 39 and will be 40 in September and i grew up on the film.
i love the film so i had high hopes for the book being even better. but for me i dunno if it's cause i'm used to the film scaring the crap out of me as a kid. but i thought the film was actually better.
the book i dunno why but to me it really wasn't that scary of a novel. there was one part that i got a little tense on and that's when Jud is on his way of getting Killed and that's it. than with IT for me i love the TV movie but i also did love the remake too. for me the tv movie is to a degree more faithful to the book in some things. they could only show
things to a certain extent in (1989) when that was filmed. and the same goes for the remake the ending i hated cause it wasn't even the book at all. it was them doing their own thing.
as for authors with a lot of books. Ed Mcbain, Piers Anthony, Dean Koontz to name a couple have a ton. but i dunno if they are have more than Agatha Christie
