I disagree that perusing fiction is more pleasurable than watching movies. My view is based on advantages of watching movies and disadvantages of reading fiction.
I think watching a movie is more suitable for a person who wants get an information or new knowledge. It has myriad advantages because a movie has two senses that can support the watchers to understand contain easier. According to my experience, a movie has a colorful moving visual which is interesting for me to watch it because I prefer to learn from colorful object than a monotonous object. A movie also has audio which is made me still got an information and point, even though I divide my eyes to another object while watching it. For example, sometimes I watch some movies while doing other activities such as studying, cooking, and eating. However, I can still got the information about the play, and I believe most of people prefer to watching movies because those reasons.
Moreover, I think reading fiction has some disadvantages if I compare with watching a movie. Reading fiction need our full concentration to get the point because reading fiction does not have a colorful visual feature, it is only a bundle of white and black paper with hundred words in each page for a novel. Beside of it, even though short story is different, it stills not colorful. Reading also does not have an audio feature, so I cannot do the other activities while reading a novel. According to my experience, reading a novel only made me bored regarding its disadvantages.

He spend 80% of his leisure time only for reading many types of book include novel. Because of his good behavior from it, I think he has the best concentration in my family.
To sum up, Even though some of my family members prefer to peruse a fiction, I believe watching movies are more suitable for me.
