senoritafish | And I haven't even seen the movie yet.....

After Lord of the Rings came out, V. and T. were debating about how good it was. T. was a big fan of the books from way back, as many of us are, and was disappointed in the whole thing. They left too much out and didn't follow the story exactly. V., having read the books only recently, countered with how can you expect a movie with a limited amount of time to cover everything in the book? And of course the director is always going to take some interpretive license, that's a given. But T., purist that he is, would not budge, even though he is planning to give the next movie a chance to impress him.

Having seen exactly two movies in the theater since Angus was born, here's
my take on the whole thing.........
