I love how people complain about character development, storyline and plot hot holes, and comic remarks etc.... IF THEY HAVE NEVER READ THE BOOKS!!!! Some of the things people complain about are in the books... thats the way it was supposed to be!!

I personally think that Peter Jackson did an amazing job of translating the books to screen. There are some hardcore fans who bitch but I mean some things just have to be lost in order to trim down the length.

I don't think that anyone will top this movie/trilogy in a long time to come. The story is timeless and beyond epic so it appeals to a massively wide audience. If any of the 3 were qualified for best picture nominations this is the one to do it too. :)

so i heard that tha ending was different from what was in tha books, is that true and if so whats tha difference.

where tha hell did these giant eagles come from, im sure they were in tha books more, but i wouldve liked somewhat of an introduction instead of them just comin outta nowhere and savin tha day. i was sitting there going W T F

i had more but i dont remember

oh yea i wish they showed when king guy took over those pirate ships that woulda been cool, was that a part in tha book?
i was lookin forward to that after seeing tha ships but i got jewed

WHY DON'T YOU TRY READING THE BOOKS YOURSELF?

*spoiler*

In the end when they get back to the shire, they find it all ravaged and Saruman and Wormtongue have basically taken it over in an attempt to salvage their evility or something. Hobbits show up and kick their pansy lilly asses and send them the boot. After that everything's pretty much the same.

^not only should you read the book, you should watch the movies again cause you weren't paying attention

wormtongue, Theoden's advisor who was corrupted by Saruman, got booted out of Edoras by Gandalf & crew??

and the eagles made their first appearence in FOTR, remember they saved gandalf from the top of orthanc? critics of the book have questioned that part as well, asking why didn't they just get the eagles to fly in there with the ring in the first place? I believe Tolkien's explanation was that nature's kingdom had always made a point of avoiding the wars of men & elves, but in the final conflict the eagles knew that a victory for Sauron would mean the end of nature as they knew it. or something like that.

Frodo & Bilbo do go west with the elves in the book, the only difference in the ending was the Scouring of the Shire.

the part with the ghost ships was in the book, but the book didn't describe the scene inside the mountain of the dead... they just went in, and the next you see them they're showing up at the pellenor with all the dead troops.

okokok i remember wormtongue, hes tha brainwash guy

as far as tha eagles, i guess there was just too much in tha books to fully explain everything in the movies. i want background info ie. gandalf saying blah blah blah eagles yada yada.

so in tha book do they attack those ships pirate style, i woulda liked to see that. pirates of the caribbean let me down.

im glad they didnt put the shire part in at tha end cuz i was already madd at all the bs at tha end. thing just kept going. everytime it switched to a new scene i cursed them all.
