# 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.

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

# the only bit I liked in Adaptation
was the "deconstructionist" joke.
At which I laughed far, far too much.

# oh, i know
i was just whining.
and trying to make a general point.
