 I don?t know if anyone else follows this trilogy or not but we just saw Lord of the Rings - Two Towers yesterday and the only thing that I didn?t like is that we?ll have to wait until next December to see the final movie!  My official initial review is wow, Peter Jackson is as much a genius as Tolken was.

 fivegonefishingDid you see " Fellowship of the Ring"
 
 Have you read the books... or just seen the Movie? If you have only seen the films, you are missing alot of the story. The films are great, but the books have so much more detail!
 
 I just re-read the trilogy... again!
 Now I am reading it to my 8-year old son.

 DBGCAMPYes and Yes[:)]
 
 Saw Fellowship last year. I would say the books were phenominal and movie great!  It s a little irking that certain details are left out of the movie but I feel Jackson has done a great job considering the story he is trying to re-tell.  
 
 It will be interesting to see if Jackson agrees to film the Hobit as a pre-quil!

 fivegonefishingHaven t seen 2 towers yet but will.  Just a note, it took 3years to make all 3 movies and all 3 were done in that time period but are released 1 year at a time.

 fivegonefishingA friend went and saw it, and said it was better then the first one.  We may have to wait till it s on video cause Lori doesn t think she can sit thru that long of a movie..and think DS may still be a bit to young for it.  It took me forever to get thru the triology when I was in HS.  The Hobbit was a lil easier reading though.

 My DW had not read the books, and finds theater seating uncomfortable... but she has seen both movies.
 
 Both times... at the end of 3 hours... She wanted MORE!
 
 She can t wait till the third film is released!

 fivegonefishingWhy did they start making movies where you had to commit to living another year just so you can see the next part?  Now I can t die until part 3 of LOR comes out (they will probably end up making The Hobbit, too) and the good Lord only knows if I ll make it through the whole Harry Potter series.  I ll really be old before the child graduates from Hogwarts.    
 Why are movies 3 hours long now?  It s bad enough that the good movies are that long but the bad ones are too.  Hard to schedule a bathroom trip.  Our newspaper even gives the best times to sneak out to the toilet so you won t miss something critical.  
 Life is so complicated I m glad there is still camping.  Roll on Pop-up.
