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.
