<BR> Re: Welcome to the board!</b><br><br> Hey...I never thought about that. The 'Tolkien virgins' as someone said, will want the book altered to fit the movie. <br> <br> Amyrlis, I think you've voiced most of our fears in that post. We all know that the movie will only be an interpretation of the book. However, for all non-tolkien readers that will be the interpretation that stays with them. Whereas all of us &quot;know the evil and desperation Mordor&quot;, &quot;have felt the weight of the ring&quot; and &quot;have heard the first mallorn leaf fall in Lorien&quot;. And thus, whatever the Peter Jackson version looks like, I still have my middle earth-the way I see it.<br> Magnificently written by the way@Amirlys. <p>Not all those who wander are lost.</p>
