Which media would be your #1

TrekBody 17 years, 8 months ago at Oct 9 21:12 -
I thought of this question after my daughter said to me "You sure love books Dad!". If pick one media for the rest of your life - TV Shows, Music, Movies, Magazines (Comics too), or Books, which would be your choice? You get as much content in that one area, but only that type - mine is definitely books - I could give up TV, Movies, Music, but not Books.

See, for myself, I could live without books. Now my choice would be between TV Shows and Movies. I enjoyed the high level of investment that is put inside a movie and is probably the media I enjoy the most. I think it combines to the music part very well. Music alone is not that awsome. The pro left for TV Shows is that you can have a story line that is much more developped or complex.

That is a hard decision! I love Movies so I guess I'll choose that as my favorite. I also couldn't do without books, tv, or music. There's just something great about going to the theater and watching a movie on the big screen. I love it!

I would pick books.

Definitely a hard decision - I love movies too, but I love the books - Phoenex's reply with TV was interesting, with the complexity of the stories, but I don't find enough of them to counter a good read.

Books or Music, Music or Books.

What an impossible question you ask.

Asho - yes but it makes the responses very interesting.

Movies for sure! I love movies. I never watch TV. I listen to music but it's not a big part of my life. I wish I still read books but I just don't anymore. Games... never play them although almost all of my friends do.

I do love books as well but movies would have to be my top pick. And THEN books.

It would definitely be MUSIC followed by MOVIES. I only watch 2 TV SHOWS and I never seem to want to pick up BOOKS (although once I do I enjoy them).

Books all the way. A well written book can make you hear music, see movies in your mind, and can be just as well developed and complex as a good TV show. Of course, that might just be the English teacher in me.

Mine would be Movies, followed by Games. i wish I had more time for books, though. I love a good book, and Jeremy's statement is so true.

Books CAN be that powerful. But if you dont have time to sit down for hours every night to engross yourself into a book, which I don't (a busy career and two little daughters made sure of that), you tend to go for 2nd choice; extracting as much story as you can from a 1.5 to 2hr movie on the weekend. ;)
