SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!

I was desperately hoping this was going to be a great movie.(it\'s been so long since I\'ve seen one. Episode I was a HUGE letdown)

i read the books and i saw the movie ! altough because you can\'t have as much detail in the movie and you need to skip some parts that are not too important , the movie was still awesome and one of my favorites ever !!!!

This is to be expected

but there are a few parts in the movie that I have read about that should have not been altered in the way they we\'re IMO

****spoilers*****

Aragorn never struggles with the concept of the ring. He fears it and has no wish to be apart of it

Awren\'s parts are all made up and never happened inthe book

Boromir actually handles the ring, abd his desire to weild it to use against mordor is the reason he is never allowed to touch it


I\'m sure there will other stuff in the movie that doesn\'t quite fit the book as well



Overall though if you go into the movie wanting to be entertained then that shoudln\'t be a problem

going in as a LOTR Tolkien Zealot will probably keep you from enjoying it

Well Double D , Aragorn does not happen in the book its true . But they wanted to show how he was strong and how the ring really was trying to controle people ( manner of speaking )

about arwen : in the book she really does not have much a role exept that aragorn does love her , its is just too suddle , so they gave a little bigger rule but all in all it changes absolutly nothing to this awesome story .( but she is cute ) :D

Boromir: in the book once again is to suddle the feeling that boromir really wants it so they decided to takes a couple of seconds to show it :D

and all in all the movie all fits extremely well with the books ! ofcourse they had to cut somewhere but that was to be expected !

EVERYONE !!!!!!! AWESOME MOVIE !!!

READ THE BOOKS

I\'m not much of a reader either but LOTR\'s is a different kind of experience

They are Epic and are much better then any film could possibly portray. You won\'t be able to put them down



IGN gave LOTR\'s a 6 outta 5

I\'d say they enjoyed it too

I saw The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Rings tonight...for the second time. I will definately buy the DVD when it comes out this August, and I can\'t wait for next December. I think that pretty much sums up how I feel about this movie. :)

Well, it was a very long movie. People were walking out, small kids mostly.

But I did like it. I have not seen (nor read) much fantasy. It turned out to be pretty cool. Reminded me of games. And that\'s good.

There was pretty much boring conversation though... I enjoyed the parts where they went to exciting or beautiful locations and faced all kindsa weird things.

My favorite character was Legolas cause he had a pretty face and a courageous personality.

I didn\'t like the end at all. It just ended. I know it\'s only the first episode but...

Maybe I should read the book, finally. :)

SmalLady: Read the book %ยค#%&. I dont know... but I didnt see anything boring in that movie, maybe because I was just looking forward to see how the actors could handle the different situations that is in the book. Well, they impressed me a lot :) Long movie ? Heh... I finaly saw the Directors Cut version of Das Boot today :) 3hours 22min long. Best war movie ever made
Merry Christmas everyone.
