i'm just curious - to say 2 read the book is easy, but has anyone actually READ the book ?!?!
i mean i bought it home once 4 my sis, but the its magnitude was hell frightening!!! additionally, i've never seen the movie, and after reading all these WEIRD names and places, i couldn't take it anymore -
i guess i'm not a fantasy loveer

Im eager to see how much of the book they managed to capture in the movie because the movie clocks in at a similar length to the other two, but the book was sooo much more complex than the other two and so much more happened.

hehe, i don't particularly like the book. Ok, good, the world created by Tolkien is very much indepth. However, i find the story isn't anywhere near as good. Thats my opinion. hehe, the movie looks great though. :)
