LOTR has always been one of my favorites. Since I was very young...a long time ago.
I look at those maps and see the story again.
The books were amazing, I read all of them years ago, the movies though were absolute garbage, I could barely get through the first two and that was it for me. That idiot Elijah Wood was just utterly miscast “Oh Saaaam” ugh, plus I think this was something that really couldn’t be made into a movie, these were books that required the imagination of the reader, the movies did away with that.
