The Tolkien Coming of Age Club

[Liriodendron]

Thanks all, that was so long ago.....bad stuff does happen, doesn't it. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] That's interesting you found an escape from reality in LoTR also Rae. I sure do enjoy reading it just for pure pleasure now. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I can tell whenever my husband is trying to "butter-me-up". He starts talking about Tolkien! Cute! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] My son is almost seven. He fell asleep to the Hobbit last year. (I'll try again) Some of the little boys that visit, stop at my lazy susan with the entire Burger King movie figures display. They like to push the buttons and listen, trying to name all the figures is challenging though. They all seem to get Legolas and Gandalf. They have seen FoTR movie, one even TTT. I would think these a little to long, scary (ugly orcs and violence) and lots of the bits hard to explain. Now my son wants to watch FoTR, I don't know....
