I love the film, but I haven't read the novel yet. I actually bought it a week ago and I'm going to read it after I finish my exam in November. I wouldn't be surprised if the film was better though, because it was just really good.
Interestingly, the screenplay was actually written by the author too. So it was definitely true to his vision.

The book's still worth a look, though.

Kind of funny how The Hobbit movies wound up being the complete opposite in pretty much every sense of this

Right well, they still suck.

Fair enough, they did use some stuff from some of his other works that nobody cares about. But that doesn't make the complaint any less valid. People watching a movie of the Hobbit mostly want the story that they know from the book.

and they get it, it's not like it's not telling the story from the Hobbit.

American Psycho: I can't fairly judge this one, I guess, given that I never read the book. I tried to read the book though. It was just so weirdly inaccessible that I put it down very quickly. The movie is a blast though.
