The third sentence: "I am going to read the book, I am going to watch the movie."

Why: it joins two independent clauses with only a comma (a comma splice). Fixes:
- Use a period: "I am going to read the book. I am going to watch the movie."
- Use a semicolon: "I am going to read the book; I am going to watch the movie."
- Use a coordinating conjunction: "I am going to read the book, and I am going to watch the movie."
