Not too long after Wild, there's another hiking movie coming out. Who knew there could be so many? This time it's A Walk In The Woods. All joking aside, my wife and I LOVE this book. I fear that the movie will in no way do the book justice. |

I saw A Walk In The Woods today. Meh.
The movie is not must see. The book, on the other hand, is a must read. |

Here's a Bill Bryson interview where he talks about his book, the movie and walking or hiking in general. |

I agree - the book was awesome - the movie wasn't

Yeah, the book was funny, but IIRC Bryson was flamed by the AT thru-hiking community for "stolen valor" because it was all made-up fiction. He never earned his stripes. |
Happy Trails!
