ROFL...look at Bilbo's hand when he is holding the Ring behind his back ready to put it on...now, I ask you...does that look like a gold washer??????????

LOL! I'll have to check for that when I get it back. I also have a filmbooks hardcover version which has 130 pictures from the Fotonovel. I read that before I finished the trilogy and it helped me visualize what was going on. Prior to that I had mistakenly tried jumping into the trilogy at Two Towers and had a terrible time trying to read it (at the age of 8 or 9). I had found a copy of The Hobbit in my grandparents' house (apparently my aunt had read it in the 60s), and when I got to the end it said to learn more about hobbits, read LotR. So I got my parents to take me to the library by my grandparents' house, which only had Two Towers in at the time, so I started reading "Aragorn sped up the hill" and had no idea what was going on, LOL! Then I saw Bakshi and after that I managed to read the trilogy.
