well, my source was a book from newline baout the upcoming movie, so i'd say it was pretty dern reliable.
haha, JD i completly agree with you on something! amazing. it's not really the fact the the evenstar breaks, it's the quote from around that statement. i haven't go thte book, so here's the gist. "the power of the evenstar is broken, and all thoughout middle earth the effect is felt..." or something.. uh oh, more story line changes. i know im going to love this movie, it's my favourite book out of the three, and im sure it will be done well.. but now, instead of obsessively excited, im more cautiously excited...

Well, the Grey Havens are definately gonna be there, cuz I've read too much saying or hinting that they are. And we already knew that Scouring wasn't gonna be in it.
If I had a stress ball I would have already shredded it. The last book has so many exciting, tender, hopeless, and hope-filled parts that I hope PJ doesn't butcher them just to make the Battle of Pellanor Fields the all-important element.

Except with Saruman gone it /is/ the all-important element.
Did you see /any/ Saruman in the companion, LuthienTinuviel? *is desperatly trying to prove that Saruman will be in the movie* You know, I'm glad he's cutting all that stuff! He can't steal my imangination of those from me just because I want to be in the debates!

I'm surprised Christopher Tolkien hasnt complained about PJ's changing so much.
I guess it was a lot of money.........

Hector: Actually, I think it's Tolkien Enterprises (a company that bought the rights) that gets the money, not the Tolkien Estate. As for Christopher Tolkien, he has remained absolutely silent about it, I believe.

From the BBC dated Friday, 7 December, 2001
"My own position is that The Lord Of The Rings is peculiarly unsuitable to transformation into visual dramatic form," he said. "The suggestions that have been made that I 'disapprove' of the films, vent to the extent of thinking ill of those with whom I may differ, are wholly without foundation." He added that he had never "expressed any such feeling". link http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertain...lm/1697884.stm |
