The movies were annoying? They were NOT! I am a lifelong fan of LOTR, and after waiting for close to 40 years for someone to translate them properly, I was thrilled with them.

First, I lose patience with people who whine and complain about movies which are not "faithful" to books. Film and print are different media and any replication from one to the other can only be comparable, not exact. Second, it was a marvelous interpretation! I lost my heart the moment I saw the watery horses at the Ford at Rivendell.
