I'm the exact opposite. I find that reading the book first leads to disappointment in the movie, because of the disparate mediums; you just can't be as detailed in a movie.

When I watch the movie first, I enjoy it for its own merits, and then I read the book and I enjoy it more because I learn more about these characters and the plot.
