One of my international readers asked a question about parallel structure that brings up a good point for all of us. She wanted to know which of these sentences is correct:

I prefer to watch movie to play video game.

I prefer to watch movie to to play video game.

My answer was that neither is correct for several reasons. Here were my suggestions for better ways to word this idea:

I prefer watching movies to playing video games.

I prefer to watch movies rather than play video games.

I would rather watch movies than play video games.

Another http://www.englishforums.com/ reader suggested another alternative that I also think is better:

I like watching movies better than playing video games.
