Books vs Movies

Which one is better?!

I love to read books and watch movies. So which one do I think is better!!, let’s see.

Books:

It provides me the opportunity to let my imagination run wild. There are no barriers.

Suppose I read a line, “ The room was palatial”; and my mind can visualize anything, from Grecian columns supporting a painted ceiling to the inside of the Taj Mahal.

While reading a book, I create a world that only I can see, modify and run. I set the rules. No one can mock me or judge me — because they wouldn’t know.

Books don’t have visuals, sounds, or animations to distract my thoughts. It is a mind soothing activity.

Movies:

Movies are the effort of a courageous person, who is ready to be vulnerable and share his/her/their imagination with the world.

Movies give me the strength to imagine beyond reality. It soothes me that I am not the only one. From the movies — I learn many different scenarios, multiple paths, and viewpoints of the same story.

Movies help me fill a few of my blind spots. It helps me sharpen my imagination and sometimes adds that “wow” element to my imagination.

So yes, I love both of them. What do you like the most?! Movies or Books?!
