If you're looking at the books, which one was voted "best book of the century/millenia"?Tigerlily: Of course CoS seemed lacking, but remember, it was almost as long as TTT is going to be. You can't include everything (*cough* Bombadil *cough*).As for CoS vs. FotR, I think FotR blew it away. I mean, it was awesome! The only thing I though was better in CoS was the Basilisk....I mean, that was awesome, especially with surround-sound. (Even if it did look like they just took Jurassic Park's Tyranasaur head and put it on a snake's body....). I'm comparing the basilisk to the cave troll (nothing can beat the Balrog! Yea!)And doesn't the spider scene in CoS just scream "The Hobbit! The Hobbit!"?Anywho....CoS was good, FotR was better....let the religious debates about CoS begin! (j/k)
