So I've heard tons of people who've never read Hunger Games tell me that they were now going to read the book so they could go see the movie. I wonder why people think they need to read the book first. From my perspective you could see the movie (or any movie based on a book) without reading the book and be fine. It almost seems like it'd be better to see the movie first since books are always better. It's also really interesting that when a story is presented in a different medium it can draw in people who weren't initially interested.

This is a good question. I think it depends on the book/movie. Some movies are butchered versions of the book, so reading the book first can lead to disappointment. Some movies are just as good as the book though, so I don't think it really matters in that case.
