I thought both the movie and the books were wonderful. However, I'm gonna agree with everyone else by saying that the books are better. I can't stop reading them. As soon as I'm finished reading RotK (which I'm about to be AGAIN) I start all over because it's just so sad when they end. Why not just start the whole adventure over?
I thouroughly enjoy the movie too though. I think that Peter Jackson (being a fan himself) tried very hard to capture Middle Earth and it's characters, and I also think that he succeeded. He added so much detail it's almost unbelievable!! My breath is always taken away at certain parts, and I can't peal my eyes away from the screen for even a second.
I love both the movie and the books, I watch and read them both all the time!! Almost too much heehee. Both are great and while I do think that the books are better, I think that movie is spectacular.

Tolkien Rocks!!

"Well this is the end Sam Gamgee," said a voice by his side. And there was Frodo, pale and worn, and yet himslef again; and in his eyes there was peace now, neither strain of will, nor madness, nor any fear. His burden was taken away. There was the dear master of the sweet days in the Shire.
"Master!" cried Sam and fell upon his knees. In all that ruin of the world for the moment he felt only joy, great joy. The burden was gone. His master had been saved; he was himself again, he was free. - RotK
