# movie?
I tried to watch that Disney one on tv for the first time, and unfortunately, my expectations were too high.

I'm far too used to the books and Tenniel's engravings.

# oh
but I can..

like, I never read beyond Fellowship in LOTR, and just saw Towers on dvd recently, which was sweeet.

I do tend to prefer films that are original screenplays, but Adaptation has to be a superlative exception.

woo Spike.

# I didn't like adaptation
but I was in a fucking terrible mood

the films and the book of lord of the rings are really different things - the films are Peter Jackson's and the Books are Tolkein's. Tolkein can't write dialogue for shit and the pace is all wrong - yet it works because he's a genious. Jackson (and Walsch and Pippa whats her face)can write dialogue and his direction is genious.

they're different forms, but the story is the same, even if some of the details are left out.
