[QUOTE="Henry, post: 471347, member: 158"] Let me state that as someone who never could finish the books at all, I loved the movie. It brought the story to life in a way the books never could for me. We are very fortunate that those same works of beautiful prose from Tolkien serve as infinite flavor for Peter Jackson's scripts, whether you liked his vision or not - you can't say he didn't have enough material to work from. I still hold that these three will be known as the best fantasy movie of all time (for now). The RPG community was NEVER had a movie that everyone could point to and say, "this is what my D&D sessions are like for me." The kinds of emotions this movie invokes in me are the kinds of emotions invoked in a very good RPG session. This is why I like it. [/QUOTE]
