Well, you may be right, but if you've never seen A Beautiful Mind, how can you judge one way or another?

Well, for one thing, I know that Tolkien was the greatest writer of the 20th century. That makes the book version of LotR better than the book version of ABM. Since I see LotR losing Best Adapted Screenplay as an affront to Tolkien, I can be as bigoted against ABM as I like. It may not be quite rational, but it's more fun this way.
