Picked up the boxed set Flags of our Fathers/Letters from Iwo Jima today. 5 discs altogether. I was just going to get Letters, , by itself, but then I thought, "I wanna see EVERYTHING!!" ( I think I've been hanging around Sensei too much )

Just finished watching Flags of our Fathers I didn't watch it in a theater because I read the book, and as a rule, I don't watch a movie if I've read the book because I've already imagined it in my head, and the movie almost ALWAYS gets it wrong. Of the 2 movies, Letters from Iwo Jima is the better of the two.

See, I don't get that...I would watch the filmed version of a novel. I think of it like, this is another person's appreciation of a piece of art. _________________

That depends on the novel. Some books could never be adequately turned into a movie. Geez, film-makers have regularly stuffed up even comics, what chance to they have with a full novel?

Hmmm, I suppose that's one way of looking at it. The thing is, the book was well over 200 pages, and to condense that down into 2 hours, they end up leaving things out, taking short cuts, etc. That's what drives me nuts, is when I see the film and say, "Geez, how come they left that part out?!!?"
