I was dissapointed in the movie. Call me a purist, but my problem with it is you know they'll cut scenes, I know that's necessary. But when they add things like Saruman beating Gandalf bloody... It has spectacular imagery, the war with Sauron, the Shire, pillars of the kings, ect. absolutely blew me away. I think a lot of people are so excited to see it on the big screen that they'll make any excuse to justify the butchery of a masterpiece. I've even heard they changed the ending. I have no doubt this film will make buckets o' money. This is the fate of great books made into film. I'm so crazy.
