or
return of the king?

# Fellowship is the best of the trilogy.
The 2nd one's Hobbits on horses, and the last one's Hobbits have a shitty holiday.

# My favourite bit in the whole book
was always Eowyn saying "I am no man" and killing the nazgul. Although I think they shifted that to the third film.

# What she said ^
Also, avoid the green jelly cheat battle in the third one, which never occurred in the book.

# Could always try digging out the radio version of Lord of the Rings
There's thirteen hours of it and it does a much better job of retaining the spirit (and story) of the books than the films. Plus you can knit at the same time, if you wanted.

# ?
Classic FM is music...

# that's what i'm saying
i'm not fond of radio that's talking, but i like listening to music on it. just like there are very few music videos i will watch as i find it distracts me from the music.

# There is music in it
They set a whole load of the poetry and songs to music as part of the production, something which was sadly lacking from the movies, plus there's the incidentals. Musically, it sounds rather good. I think it was done mostly with a string quartet, but I could be wrong about that.

Just found an example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5YwMpSN6CU&feature=related

I used to have all that on tape; it's lovely. Really creepy nazgul sounds as I recall.

# I think it does get repeated occasionally...
Keep an eye on Radio 4 Extra; that's where it's likely to turn up. Of course, there's also bits of it on Youtube as well.
