    Lord of the Rings - the movie

    Anyone here looking forward to see the third part of the trilogy next month?

    A part of me can't wait to see it, but another part of me is sad because then it will be over.

    Is anyone else here a fan of the movies or the books?

    I read the books, MANY, MANY, years ago. I really liked them too.

    I am enjoying the movies also. I am not one to rush right out and fight the crowds, but I will go see it in the theater a couple of week after it realeases.

    I think they have done a great job on them. I know that if you want to get nit picky that this may be wrong or they didn't do this quite in the same way the book did it. However, it's been a great series and it you just sit back and relax, there really great movies.

    Many Thanks to Kay for the Picture.

    Yes, I know, some people complain that this or that was different in the books, but I don't mind.

    IMO Peter Jackson has done a very, very good job with his movies, and I love the entire atmosphere, especially in the first one!

    I am borderline obsessed (soon to pass the obsessed line) with the Lord of the Rings movies (and actors). Ha ha, you should see my room- walls completely covered with posters & dressers completely covered with books, figurines, trading cards, etc.

    I am looking forward to The Return of the King indeed. I am going to cry like a baby! I am not looking forward to it in a way, because it will be all over. I am going to order my tickets the day they come out, just like last year. I plan on seeing the movie 10 times in the theater- that is my goal. I saw Two Towers 9 times in the theater lasy year, and Fellowship of the Rings 13 time sin the theater. Ah, I can't get enough of my LOTR.

    In fact, I have The Two Towers paused in the other room, I need to go finish the rest of it. I paused it to pop on Pet Talk and see what's new.

    I LOVE Lord of the Rings, Orlando Bloom, and Viggo Mortensen!!

    I am in the middle of The Return of the King (book), and I am not going to read anymore, I want to see the movie THEN read the end of the book. Ha, ha, I am so weird!

    I am a fan of the books, movies, and everything else Tolkien. I am counting down the days until ROTK gets into theaters! I will be at the very first midnight showing just like I was for the first two I bought the ROTK video game Saturday. I haven't gotten very far, but it's fun so far

    You can say that again! When I was reading the beginning of the third book, I started crying just imagining it will be in the movie. (Won't say exactly what parts, in case there may be spoilers.) .

    Ian McKellen suggested to everyone who thinks about seeing movie should bring their Kleenex boxes to the theater...I think I will. I am going to bring a pack of Kleenex with me.

    Not to be nit-picky but it's not a trilogy...
    JR originally had it as one book but it was too long as one book so he had to split it up into three books, but it still is one big story. Sorry if I sound naggy or anything, it's just that when people say it's a trilogy it bugs me because I know it's not! The books are my mom's favorite so I hear about them all the time.

    But it IS a trilogy. A trilogy means ONE story broken into THREE parts.

    The books are gorgeous. First time I read them was around 1975.

    And the movies are gorgeous too. I am looking forward a lot

    I'll wait until the DVD of the 2nd part is cheaper. We have a new TV set since September and we bought a DVD player with it. Which is GREAT!!!!!!
