Why are books better than movies?

‘Books give soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything’, a very poetic way of looking at books. But the reality of the matter is that in this digital age, not many people believe that books are better than movies.

The number one reason, according to moviegoers, is that reading a book takes too long! What they do not know are the hidden gems, the feelings, the worlds, the imagination and the sensations that can only be felt, experienced and known by reading a good book. It is worth digging deeper into the matter and finding more reasons to show how books will remain the best option forever:

1. Challenge the imagination

Books put readers’ imaginations into overdrive. When you sit down with a new book and start reading about the characters and scenes, your mind automatically fills in the blanks and starts creating those scenes and giving the characters a life of their own in your thoughts. The real beauty of the whole experience is that we can shape everything in any creative way we want.

2. Full details

Although movies can grab attention with eye-catching visuals, they can never compete with books when it comes to the sheer amount of detail about characters and stories. The writer brings the character to life, one word and one backstory at a time. Readers meet them like a new acquaintance and as a result of this process, they establish a connection with each of the characters.

3. Extended experience

Think of the best movie you’ve ever seen, how long was it? 2 hours maximum. They mix up stories, remove details, merge characters, and perform other unthinkable tasks to complete the movie in the allotted time. The experience of reading a book can last for hours, if not days. There are no time limitations or page limits. Writers can take as long as they want to wrap up their story, and readers can go at their own pace to finish reading the books.

4. Consider the cost

Consider the cost of buying a book and compare it to the price of a movie ticket; they are almost the same but the entertainment value is quite different. The movie will be over in a few minutes, but the impact of the book will last longer, as mentioned above. In addition, you can read the book as many times as you want, without incurring any additional cost.

5. Mental benefits

It is scientifically proven that reading offers many mental benefits, as well as some psychological ones. Vocabulary, memory, critical thinking, etc. everyone will see a boost when one reads regularly.

Books are better than movies

Books are like food for your mind and without them, a mind cannot grow. ace George Martin it says in game of thrones “A mind needs books like a sword needs a whetstone, if it wants to keep its edge.”That pretty much covers the answer to the questions of why the books will always be better than the movies.
