What's Better - the Movies or the Books?

Earlier today on Ankeny Patch, we ran a story about for the onslaught of fans who will be attending the midnight showing of the final installment of the Harry Potter series, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2," arguably one of the most anticipated films of the summer.

But behind every Harry Potter movie is a Harry Potter book either waiting to be read or falling apart at the binding. Some will argue the movies are better, while some will disagree. That leaves us with a likely question in the debate between books vs. film adaptations. In the case of Harry Potter, which is better - the movies or the books, and why? Tell us in the comments! (And you'll get extra credit if you tell us which installment was your favorite)

Each day, Ankeny Patch will ask a question, designed to inform, educate or entertain our readers. We encourage all our readers to not only answer truthfully but have fun with one another through your responses.
