Enjoy the program.
My youngest brother (the movie buff) loved the whole series. I have watched bits and pieces of them all, but haven’t ever been able to sit thru any of the series.
Who the Golem suppose to be I want to know LOL!
PRECIOUSSS PRECIOUS RING LOL!
While Tolkein is sublime, Joseph Pearce is himself quite interesting. For those unfamiliar with it, his conversion story may be found here:
Race with the Devil: From the Hell of Hate to the Well of Mercy
I don’t like the movies all that much. Why couldn’t they stick to the text?
I have a book Joseph Pierce wrote about Tolkien, that I got at the homeschool store clearance sale. It was very interesting. He’s an engaging writer, although a discerning reader sometimes has to say, “And how do you know that?!?”
Forget the movies. Watch a travel show about New Zealand, and then read the books (or the other way around). Tolkien’s sentences are absolutely exquisite; it’s like being in the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception.
I didn’t care for the movies much. I noticed that all evil beings were initially good. As I know little about Catholicism can someone tell me - Just who was Tom Bombadil?
No wonder Catholics don't like the Bible.
Wonderful, I will set the DVR!
