Reply to comment by CheeseMakingMom in Listening and reading are not the same by jstnpotthoff

Are movies books?
I'm not trying to sound glib. I can agree that the sentiment that "the story is what's important." I just haven't heard anybody argue that even the most faithful movie adaptation is similar to reading the book.

No, movies are not books, not even those adapted from books. I said nothing of the sort. You’re being deliberately obtuse, and I choose to expend no further energy on you.
