why do people dislike lord of the rings? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Lord of the Rings has a lot of depth that some people cannot fathom. It is confusing if you have only seen the movie because of all the characters and the explainations that are failed to be given. Some people are against the violence, but it is not just mindless killing, it is good verses evil. Many people find the book boring (how could they! *gasp*)and others aren't interested in the story plot. I do have friends who have not read the books but still love the story. I guess it must have to do with why some people like jelly and others like fluff (or both!)
