'An attrocious movie which is a despicable insult to a wonderful book' - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

How sad that you can't enjoy the movies for themselves.<P>I have been reading LOTR once a year since 1975. I love the books. That doesn't mean I can't enjoy the movies even when there are significant changes. I was sorry that PJ & Company changed the character of Frodo & Faramir to the point where I feel they don't reflect what was written. But that doesn't mean the movies can't be enjoyed. I just view them as someone elses take on LOTR, same as we have seen in print.<P>Lighten up a little and try to enjoy life a little more.
