Although I dont understand why Sci-Fi isn't given any credit,.....the only reason LoTR will be remembered in 50 years is because of JRR,....he was inteligent and able to put a fantasy world in the hearts of millions,...just because he was able to do something great, doesn't mean they should have made a movie about it....although i enjoyed it, I was upset how they portreyed Dwarves as the comic relief. the movie isn't half of what the books were, and maybe thats why they didn't make awards,...they are being judged to a whole greater thing, the Books are obviously better......................... well those are jsut my thoughts, take em' or leave em'
