Games: Book vs screen adaption

[Dreamer]

The first peron names a book which has been also made a movie/ tv show. The second person answers which he/she believe is better, and then asks another one.

Example:
Person 1:The Fellowship of the Ring?
Person 2: The book was better. The Hunger Games?
and so on...

(if you haven't seen the adaption or read the book, you just commend: "I haven't seen it" or "I haven't read it")


I'll start!
The Lightning Thief?

No nope not at all, the book was infinitely better.
