Are the movies a good or bad thing?

<BR> Re: Are the movies a good or bad thing?</b><br><br> I believe that the movies will be a good thing, as you said it will spread the works of Tolkien, but I think the director should be prepared for much criticism beause of the movies flaws. I think that it will take years to properly draw out the movie, but a movie a year will most likely be innacurate. Middle-earth is probably best shown through cartoon form where your imagination can't create settings and characters. So the answer to would probably be yes, because I want to see my favorite books on the screen, as would all Tolkien fans. <p></p>
