I think that is a great example of how movies can’t compare to the book. That book and a few of Dan Brown’s others blew me away. The details and story telling get lost on the big screen.
I think that I mentioned it but for sure shows/movies can't touch one's imagination so books are much better and one really gets immersed into that world. However, I do like a good movie/show too and appreciate things being 'fleshed out' by making thoughts visualized. To me, maybe cuz I just can't get into reading novels, I'd just wait for the show/movie.

In any event, I would only do one or the other, I dunno how ppl would intentionally read the book beforehand and see how it plays out later on, it really killed The DaVinci Code movie for me and I'd never do that again.
