Movies are better than books

Saving money with books: In this economy it is actually cheaper to read a book than it is to go to movies theaters or rent a movie. Reading a book doesn't have to cost anything at all because you can rent it from the library, no one says you have to buy a book in order to read it. Using the library can be a great way to still be able to read all the books you want and not have it cost you a dime. When you stated that "Also, in many cases it costs a lot less to go to the movies or rent or buy a movie than it does to buy a book" That is not the case in this economy, in an article online it states that 61% of American don't go to the movies anymore and blame the high costs of tickets. Even if you just wanted to rent a movie it still cost money, renting a book doesn't. The career opportunities with books: There is countless job opportunity for people who are interested in the literal field. You stated that "Movies also create more job opportunities" isn't exactly the case because when writing a book it's just not a writer and a publisher who get the book out for the general public. Getting a book ready for stores takes a lot of work from multiple jobs. For example there are writers, publishers, editors, agents, printers, distributers, copy editor, production editor, typesetters, marketing expert and voice actors for audio books. Without any of those jobs a book wouldn't be able to make it to stores. Audiobooks are a good option for people who would rather listen, then read. You stated that "Many people enjoy the sound of another person's voice", people can have that same experience buying or renting an audiobook. On iTunes they have countless audiobook available and the library is also a good place to rent them if you don't want to spend any money and you have a recorder to listen to them on. On iTunes you can download the audiobook straight to your IPhone or iPod and listen to it anywhere you go and where ever you go making it easier to listen to an audiobook. Social opportunities: There are many Social opportunity that deal with books and not just movies when go to the movies theaters with friends. With books there're books clubs and meeting where you can talk about the book in depth with people and have people maybe shed light on things you might have missed. There is also the book signings that is a good way to meet new people and the authors of the books you enjoy. There is also book shopping you can do with friend or going to the library with a friend. Details: You said that details can become boring and make someone stop reading a book. Without the details how are you suppose to understand what is going on in the book if there isn't any detail to support what is happening in the book? The details in the book don't make someone stop reading it's the whole general concept of a book that can be boring to someone, not just some boring details here and there. Sometimes it's the details in the book the grab the reader's attention and puts them on the edge of their seat and wanting more. When you watch a scene in a movie you don't "reenact the scene" like you said that expands the imagination. The scene is already all played out and shown right in front of you so you don't have to reenact anything or use your imagination for anything either if everything is already visually shown to you. Books a can be emotional: I believe books can be more emotional because you're reading the scene through the characters point of view and you're in their head. You're experiencing the scene first hand with the character instead of just watching it on the television. When the scene is very emotional you can feel it through the character and get a better feel of emotion because you're in the characters head, seeing what they're seeing, and have a better feel of the whole atmosphere of the scene. Books are to be read in sections: Books are made to be read in parts and not all at once. That's why there are chapters because it makes it easier for the reader to come back to where they left off. I'm not saying that some people don't enjoy reading a whole book at once because many people do. Most people also read at night before they go to sleep so they don't have any need to take any breaks like going to the bathroom, eating or walking the dog because all that is already taken care of. It's common for people to take brakes during movies because there just sitting in front of the television for 2 hours straight eating and drinking, which can make them have to take a bathroom break or even get more food.
