Lord of the Rings

[Keefe]

I am really interested in the Lord of the Rings.  I have read and enjoyed all of the books in the set.  I am wondering if anyone here has seen the movie and how does it compare to the book?

Thanks

I just came back from the movie and WOW.  I loved it.  I havent read all of the books but I know The Hobbit real well.  The movie was excellent.

I am so itching to see that movie that it isnt funny!!

But alas Im spending Christmas with my parents in a country town with a sub standard cinema so I think Ill wait till I get back to Sydney so I can see it at a Hoyts.

I am going to see the movie sometime during the day tomorrow.  Well, acutally today sometime.  I will get back to everyone on what I think about it.

I saw it the day it opened here in San Diego.  Talk about an epic movie!  It truly lives up to that notion.  Although the movie was three hours long, it was very good and always kept you in the movie.  It also kept true to the book.  I just wish they released all three of them so I can just watch it in one sitting. Now I have to wait until next year to see the continuation.  My butt really didn't know it was going on three hours until near the end where one cheek finally got numb...hahaha!  ;D  I highly recommend this movie to the fantasy/action movie types!  You won't be disappointed.

Well I finally caved in and went and saw it up in the country.

All I can say is that it was about as true to the book as it could have been and even though it was 3 hours long, my mind didnt stray ONCE....and when we got out of the cinema I looked @  my watch and could not believe that it was 3 hours long....I think ill go see it again when Im back in Sydney....movies are about the only place to take refuge from the smoke @ the moment.  :
