Why do I ever watch movies made from books I liked? I finished reading Stieg Larsson’s Milennium Trilogy the other night, and decided to watch the movies for fun. The irritating, unnecessary plot changes, important removed scenes, missing characters, and general inferiority to the books are making me hate, even though they are pretty good movies in their own right. I’ve quite enjoyed some of the grapic novel derived movies of late (The Watchmen was excellent, if divergent, and Scott Pilgrim was honestly better as a movie), but novel derived movies are almost always irritating.

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
