I usually read the book first, and I don't watch the movie if the book is a 5/5.
If a book is that good, I am often afraid to hurt my experience of remembering the book as it is. I have my own images of scenery, people and their personalities, stories; and I don't want that overridden in any way. Motion picture for a favorite of mine makes me afraid.
That's mainly the reason why I still haven't watched 2001: A space odyssey, or The Martian, or Twelve Years a Slave.. This applies to TV series, I don't watch the Beacon 23, or the Expanse series. I'm told I'm missing out on a lot of good stuff, but I still get to keep the books intact.
