While the fans who read the original books are going to be enthralled with its faithfulness to the book,

I SO hope so.

Maybe this movie will move a few of the less-bold females a bit further up their journey in life!!

As long as the have a few good men with them.... One true love and a few true male friends...or they could end up like Hillary!!!!

I understand that the real changes from the books include the elimination of Tom Bombadil (don't know if the Old Forest will figure in, probably at some level to later explain the Ents), and Arwen has a bigger role than in the books (takes Glorfindel's place at the Ford -- and her line there really bothers me for some reason). I'm not sure what other changes there will be, but I understand that these are the main ones.
