    Frankenstein book was a little long to read and not very interesting to me. The pictures were good to have to somewhat visualize what was going on‚ but otherwise the book was a waste of time to me. I could never really get into it very much making it difficult for me to read it without getting bored of it. We also just finished the movie today with Carrie Fisher which was weird not seeing her shooting a blaster at storm troopers‚ but that is beside the point. It did not follow the book that we read

    The movie itself is very much different from the book. The story was also changed with some of the plot. The movie and the book are both still following the same story line. Along with the same ending. This is what I have noticed between the movie and the book. Number one is that the old man was cruel to the young man. Unlike in the book where it says and I quote “The old man had never wronged me”. That was huge difference. This change also gave him a different reason to kill the old man. That was

    the book is the added characters and storylines. While some of the added storyline help to clarify parts about the battle of five armies‚ it also serves to muddle up parts of the movie and making them hard to follow‚ such as the story line about the Necromanser and all the death he is bringing back to reclaim the mountain.
