In your opinion, which one of the movies followed the book the closet

[Kaiserin]

My vote goes to FOTR.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I think that TTT was probably the closest to the book. <BR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Forgive me, but my opinion is that TTT was the one that suffered the most alterations.<BR>All of the movies had several major differnces from the books, but I'd say that FOTR was the one that kept its integrity the most. It is always a given fact that whenever a book is interpreted into a film, parts have to be discarded, some characters eliminated or even merged with others. The alterations made in FOTR were understandable and to a point acceptable - e.g., most of the deleted parts had no offensive effect on the plot. The alterations in TTT were the most upsetting - there were big changes in the plot and a major character. ROTK is more consistent with the books than TTT, but in my opinion not as faithful as FOTR.<p>[ 12:40 AM January 22, 2004: Message edited by: Kaiserin ]
