Read the book today. Pretty good. Not entirely dissimilar from the movie, though the ending is different. (I like the book's ending better.) I'm going to watch the movie again tonight while the book is still fresh in my mind.

Talk amongst yourselves.

Not enough words per page for me.

Seriously.  I hate that.  I feel ripped off.

The advantage to books that have a low word to page ratio is they're easier to translate fully into a 2 hour movie. Aside from the ending, the differences are subtle. After a day dedicated to Fight Club, I'm now completely ready to comply with rules 1 & 2 for a while.
