With the book fresh in my mind, I was disappointed by the movie. But my husband, who read the book in high school, enjoyed the movie a lot.<br /><br />I'll play Trivial Pursuit with you! I might have to re-read LOTR though. :)Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12440971852812782688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604080738678475033.post-30537065719742019842013-09-05T09:29:25.285-04:002013-09-05T09:29:25.285-04:00I vaguely remember hearing that, but I forgot sinc...I vaguely remember hearing that, but I forgot since I was waiting to read the book before watching the movie(s). Maybe I'll wait until the next one comes out before I see the first one, so I don't have to wait.Mandi Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14641577291206420549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604080738678475033.post-4015925630140191582013-09-05T08:04:53.167-04:002013-09-05T08:04:53.167-04:00My hubby and I were both pleased with the Hobbit.....My hubby and I were both pleased with the Hobbit... but you do know that it's at least 2 movies right? I won't tell you where the first one ends, but we are looking forward to the second due out in December! :) I never read or saw LOTR until I met my husband... but we love and watch the LOTR movies over and over again.Isaiah 55:8-9https://www.blogger.com/profile/14499199447079790203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604080738678475033.post-15964119600407124172013-09-04T12:20:37.125-04:002013-09-04T12:20:37.125-04:00Oh, I do love LOTR much, much more!

I'm not sure if I would have liked it as much if I hadn't been as invested in the characters and the world of Middle Earth.
