Just Wondering

[Tigerlily Gamgee]

I had heard of it before the movie because in High School we played a piece of music from The Hobbit(I'm guessing the cartoon version). But if it tells you anything... I thought a Hobbit was a dragon back then (for shame!).

I went home last November and my friend, who worked in a movie theatre, showed me the poster she had gotten from work & another friend had the CD. I was thinking, "hey, that looks like something I would like to see."
Well, over the holidays I went with my dad because we like fantasy movies & well, like everyone else who hasn't read the books... I wasn't satisfied with the ending. I was really worried about Merry and Pippin, so I went out and bought the books (so did my dad). We both read them and loved them & now I can't wait to see the next film (I now realize the anticipation people must've had for the first one).
I do think that the movie made many more fans, though I doubt that all of them have picked up the books yet. Maybe they will sometime soon.
