Yep--the Tolkien junkie reviews are always better. I'm one myself, and have been trying to convince some of the more hardcore Tolkienites that the movie will be just fine. (And I never did like Tom Bombadil, anyway...)

Blasphame!... I LOVED Tom Bombadil... AND Goldberry - The River-daughter, and of course the grand pony Fatty Lumpkin... (click my profile and look at the name of my pony)

Seriously... I Do love Tom... Loved his songs, loved his love of his woods and his lack of corruptability. He may be the reason I am still single... No one has measured up.... But I won't whine about it... got that out of my system the first couple of threads. I can visit Tom any time I want!

And his socks were yellow.

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)
