Movies are Better Than Books. A Mathematical Proof.

I do not find joy in reading, never have.  I know some people will find this ignorant and completely batshit crazy.  I like watching movies much better.  "But a book is more descriptive." -Every Book Lover in the World.  I disagree and have created a mathematical proof that shows that not only are movies better, but 2700 times better. See for yourself.

A movie projector (pre-digital revolution) shows 24 frames (pictures) per second.
With a little math:
(24 frames/second) x (60  sec/min) = 1,440 frames/min
(1,440 frames/min) x (60 min/hour) = 86,400 frames/hour
(2 hour movie) x (86,400 frames/hour) = 172,800 frames/movie

and if

1 picture = 1000 words

then

(1000 words/pic) x (172,800 frames/hour) = 172,800,000 words/movie

With books averaging 64,000 words each (Amazon.com Text Stats)

(172,800,000 words/movie) / (64,000 words/book) = 2700 Books/Movie.

So I have found mathematical proof that a movie is 2700 times better than a book.
