The book or the movie 2

I have discussed this topic before and I am sure I will get back to it again and again. What is best the book or the movie? And could a movie ever be as good as the book?

This past December a big Swedish film production had premiere. The script was based on The Crusade Trilogy written by Swedish author Jan Guillou. The film is divided into two movies (think Lord of the Rings) with the next part coming out in December of this year.
I recently saw the movie and I was impressed by it. I have read the books and loved them and I had kind of made up my mind about the movie already, thinking a movie could never top the books, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was a really good movie and I am really looking forward to the next part.
