BB - that WAS quite funny!
On your profile I note your profession: something like "Tolkien Purist Re-Hab Counselor"... if I may ask, what's that pay? And, er... what are the qualifications?? |

The pay sucks, Valandil, but sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
When I first heard that some guy named Peter Jackson was doing a live-action version of the LOTR, I was extremely skeptical. I had grown so accustomed to being disappointed by sequels of great films or adaptations of great books that I'd conditioned myself to assume the worst. Like most people here, I would have said at the time, "it can't be done, PJ and company can't do justice to my favorite books. It's impossible." Thankfully, I was wrong. |

I haven't read the books since is saw the movies, so I forget things that were in the book, for example, when thinking of LotR in general, old man willow doesn't usually come to my mind, and the cool barrow whight* part often slips from my memory.
*spelling?

The thing I remember from the movie most when I reread the books is the music. I get it stuck in my head whenever I read them.

Gamigar;
Re: the question of spelling you brought up; the accurate spelling is "wight".
