Films or text? Why?

I've known the answer to this question for many years already, it's nothing that I have to think about. I prefer films simply because I learn faster when I have something visual to demonstrate the information to me. I think a lot of people are that way. It make sense, our world is a visual place so when we have to learn new things we are probably going to learn faster, better and overall more efficiently when it is actually demonstrated to us. Also, oftentimes films can somehow give a message or a feeling to a person that is very hard to express in words, like the saying goes "A picture is worth a thousand words." But there is also another difference that I have noticed between the two different learning styles. I pick up visual information faster but the information that I take out of text sticks with me for longer. I think it's because when you read you have to figure out what the text means and how to retain that information yourself, but in a film you have someone else already explaining all the info to you. Because you understand it right off the bat you don't worry about remembering it as much. So the less effort you put into learning material the faster you will forget about it. But that's just me, it is probably totally different for many people, as we all know we are all very unique.
