Book, movie, who cares? Whichever one comes to my attention first is the one I experience first. Usually that means the book, simply by virtue of it being the source material, but if I see a movie (which is rare these days) and then find out it is based on a book and decide to read it, that's fine too.
I think the more popular and beloved a book is, the harder it is to make a movie that satisfies its fans. An adaptation of a lesser-known work seems to have a better shot at movie success.
