Thank you very much. I had made up my mind to stay away from the movie, out of reverence for the book. This review's enthusiasm changes my mind.

I was a bit skeptical about the movie at first (way back in 1998) but I converted to enthusiasm by the time the first trailer came out. I am avoiding those loathesome Burger King goblets like the plague, though.

I appreciate having your view. I have seen exactly nothing. I mean, I REALLY set out to avoid this! Now I'm getting antsy to see it! :-)

Like 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Fellowship of the Ring is unprecedented in its class Wow!
Steven Greydanus also wrote an epic review of "Harry Potter." He's now my most trusted movie reviewer.
(I like Tom Bombadil for his non sequiterness if for anything else. I also loved the idea of the "living trees." To each his own I guess)

They're not just to behold, they're to be held! LOL! Good one! Ha ha ha... I love merchandising schlock. Don't ask me why. So I have to get my glass, to be held and behold!

Go see it. I love Tolkien. I just re read TLOTR, and then just finished reading Fellowship of the Ring to my 9 yr old son. We went to see it. EXCELLENT. But too violent/scary for all three of my children, 9,7,5. The 7 and 5 yr old left with mom after only the opening scenes. The 9 yr...its a toss up. He was OK but it was awefully scary.
Again, GO SEE IT!!!
