Predictions for Return of the King

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> TTT was a good movie. I found it was a movie that catered well to non-reading fans. I heard Mal didn't like it. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>That was my cousin at the end of a letter to my parents. <P>Anyway, I think that most non-reading fans will be satisfied with RotK, despite how close or how far it is from the books, as long as it isn't a total blow-out. <P>As for readers of the book, we have to understand that screw-ups happen when making movies. I mean, my dad promised not to fall asleep during the almost-three-hour FotR, but did during the whole trip through Moria. He promised the same thing when he offered to go see TTT with me, and yet he fell asleep after seeing the Oliphaunts. So, to make it any longer would be terrible, and so they have to cut some things out. <P>Besides, it's just a movie...right? I think RotK will be better than TTT. It's the movie I've been waiting for since I found out there would be movies. I thought it would be the best. RotK was my favorite of the books. <P>Do you think that if they put Shelob in TTT they might have time for the Scouring in RotK? PJ claimed that if they put Shelob in TTT, there wouldn't be enough for Sam and Frodo to do in RotK.<P>Aylwen<p>[ January 30, 2003: Message edited by: Aylwen Dreamsong ]
