Do you think Tolkien would be insulted by the LOTR movies?

[Lalaith]

I think many of you are placing far too much emphasis on the Tolkiens' (JJR and Christopher) lust for gold. <BR>The man who wrote LotR doesn't strike me as the kind of person who would shrug away artistic integrity for the sake of swelling the coffers. <BR>LotR was already a very successful book and had made Tolkien and his heirs a very great deal of money. He wasn't Howard Hughes or Citizen Kane, you know - there's only so much wealth an Oxford don can spend.
