Counting Down
-
I managed to get tickets for the opening night. I was dreading only getting for later in the week and then having to avoid half of the Lounge for a few days as everyone ranted and raved about it :-D I will do my best to shut-up on the 18th :) regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Brian Welsch wrote: "blah blah blah, maybe a potato?" while translating my Afrikaans.

Doesn't matter to me...my nose is going to be firmly implanted in my calculus book. I've got that final on Thursday...then I have to start avoiding the Lounge. ;P Which won't be hard because my super-indulgent, ultra-loving grandparents are coming in to town. Plenty of things to do with them. :)

But as movies, and the way they have been done, they have been excellent. Now that I know Saruman has even been cut of of ROTK I guess I won't really be going for the story line, but rather to enjoy the movie in it's own right. I'm probably making no sense here :sigh:... Monday Madness strikes again :~ .

The movies aren't all that true to the books, but if they had been made to follow the books by the letter, each movie would have had to be about three times as long as they already are. As Peter Jackson (I think it was) said, just the part when the hobbits travel from The Shire to Bree could easily have been made into a three-hour movie itself. But if you want a story a bit more true to the books, get the extended versions (on DVD or VHS) which are rather much longer and (IMHO) much better. That goes especially for The Two Towers which is about 40 minutes longer than the big screen-version. With the first two parts in mind, I actually see the cinema-version of the Return of the King as a rather long trailer for the extended DVD version :)

I think it's funny that people consistantly complain how the movies aren't as good as the books, or they ruined the story by cutting out this or changing that. It's nothing new.
