<BR> Re: my thought on the movies</b><br><br> True enough Dogtrot.<br> your point re: it effecting visualization of the book is for me a huge one- obviously for some peole it won't be. For some it my be a real plus [as the Star wars movies gave an amazing depth to sometimes great and sometimes lame books]<br> I will undoubtedly see it once[God Willing I should say] -but if I didn't want it to become by default the prism through which I began to view [picture ] the books I might not see it again.<br> the stills I have seen so far seem to be excellent [except for this newest one of Saruman? being impaled on what appears to be a piece of his own machinery]<br> lindil<br> and of course it will undoubtedly have a good effect on the [non] reading public especially all the cyber youth- the fact that H. potter is due to be released a month earlier will prob. help too. <p></p>
