which do you prefer? now i like watching jlu or avengers animated series or arrow etc but man when i get lit and read its like a show is going on inside my head. also i like watching the movie versions or an animated series and the characters voices and mannerism are close to how i read them. whats your opinion.

    Ive never seen a movie/show that was better than the book it was based off of.

    Godfather is one of the most loved Mafia movies of all time. Classic to many. I read the book when i was 18, finally watched the movie when i was 20 and i was very disappointed in the movie. The book was GOAT.

    Saw the Movie IT when i was young. Scared me, sure. Read the book when i was 16, had trouble sleeping.

    Oh whoops just realized this was in the comic section.

    Still, i def like reading comic books more than watching the animated show. The animations (especially DC) are GOAT though.

    Live action comic book movies are kind of in a class of their own because they will mash stories up. Youll have elements of a arc that was written in the 80's, but also elements of a arc that was written in the 00's all in the same movie.

    Kind of like Batman v Superman. Gonna have Dark Knight Returns influences, but also a lot of New 52 influences.

    Depends.

    But I watch anime only in their original voice.

    I hate the white ppl that do the voices. ? be corny

    Reading comic books easily. No budget limits and no limits on the imagination when it comes to comic books. You couldn't see something as bat ? insane yet ingenius as The Multiversity in the TV or movie mediums.

    I love good adaptations. The source material normally tells a better story....

    But when the adaptation catches it perfectly it's always awesome to me

    i had an avengeres earth mightiest heroes marathon last weekend on netflix. that is one of the best superhero animated series. that avengers assemble show is boring compared to this. i want to see a thor show with the same writers and animaters but in this version he has his donald blake alter ego. it would be like he man but more violent and with more sophisticated writing.

    Source material is 98% of the time better than the adaptation.

    the thing is i saw an episode on netflix where they fought molecule kid the son of molecule man. hawkey had a flashback when he and the rest of the team fought molecule man and the flashback had the same animation style as emh. i think that flashback sequence was lost footage from the canceled third season. i was thinking that maybe assembled is a continuation of emh but then remembered that falcon on the assemble show is a lame and the falcon from emh was trill.
