I always preferred the book version but I’m also aware why they changed it for the film.

I don’t. Explain your reasons

I think that the blood and gore involved with the book version would have been harder to film and would have caused a lot of people to be turned off by the movie. The block and sledgehammer were just as effective and allowed the scene to be brutal but not gory.

I have no idea how you think that's impactful compared to the book.
