I hear what most of you are saying about it not being like the book.I have read stuff that the movie's don't live up too, but in a way the movie has it's own flare. I haven't read the books so I wouldn't know, but for someone who hasn't read the books I connected and fell in love with this movie. I cant wait till they make the next one and it not fallowing the book gives its own flare. Now you can do both, read the book, and watch the movie. I want to read the books now but I want to see where this goes first.
