WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What an absolutely incredible writer.
I can't wait to see the movie.

I also am looking forward to the films, but I must reread the books first.

katie holmes makes no appearance in the book. Galadriel wouldn't let her as katie would have upstaged her as a much more beautiful woman.
Tom Bombadil is actually one of my Zigs. He's there to establish one of my bases, but the lazy bastard sings dances and flirts with that water chick in those crazy assed yellow boots of his WHEN HE SHOULD BE WORKING!
I also need to enforce a uniform dress code it seems.

Long, long descriptive sections on forests, and trees, and rivers, and rocks, and banks of rivers, and trunks of trees, and leaves, and such. In the Fellowship of the Ring I found one such section that went on for three and a half pages.
In general I find the first book very slow going in parts. But it's a great story all together.

And the Lord of the Ring is NOT a trilogy. Thats what it says in the introduction of my book (which has all three 'main' books).
" The Lord of the Rings is often erroneously called a trilogy, when it is in fact a single novel, consisiting of six books plus appendices, sometimes published in three volumes."
Granted I'm having a hard time not seeing it as a trilogy but then again I also can't overlook the fact that it is written as a total of six books. So it could be a sexolgy. (No not sex as in fucking, sex as in six).

I shall bring them all together and in the sillyness of OSY, bind them!
In the land of OSY where post-whores lie.
One Troll to Rule them all,
One Troll to find them,
One Troll to bring them all together and then Banana-Creme-Pie them!
In the land of OSY where the Postwhores lie!

I just might too, since the second War of Souls book for Hickman and Weiss REFUSES to come out in paperback!
:hatred:
In any event, I won't start them for awhile. I don't have time, what with me dating Viconia and chilling tossing back cold ones with Minsc, Boo and Jaheira...
:(
Oh shit, I'm such a freaking loser!

Only one such section?
Man, english writers are soo lazy.
Karl May* used to fill most of his books with that.
*German writer. Wrote Winnetou+Old Shatterhand.
Probably more known to germans.

how much of the LOTR trailer is actually from the first two books (or the first 'trilogy')?
The trailer is for the first movie, Fellowship of the Ring, which covers the first book of the trilogy. Then there'll be two more movies for the other two books.
These movies are going to rock.

Hands up anyone who didn't get horribly bored through "Return of the king" about the dull old war, and couldn't wait to get to the cool spider-fighting stuff with Frodo and Sam.
Plus, gay hobbit sex!

between frodo and sam i'm assuming? Or is it Sam forcing onto Frodo? Kinda like the pizzaman forcing onto RQE..
woo hoo!!! i bree-ink teh pAst* to teh futhure!
* Say in teh brit accent not american:
american: plant == plaaaant
brit: plant == plAnt
american: bastard == baaastard
brit: bastard == bAstard
American accent tends to sound very nasaly.. if nasaly is a word and if it is indeed spelled as such.
