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

I think you'll find that repeating yourself is the best way to come out on top in any discussion here on the Downs. Many people here initially disagree with me, but I find that if I just keep on saying the same thing over & over & over they get bored & go away so that I get the final word & so win the point. This is a good thing. Some posters do, admittedly, keep on but they underestimate my persistence, insight, wisdom & all-round stubbornness & in the end give up out of sheer exhaustion.

Using big words intimidates most of them too (especially the Colonials )

Welcome to the Downs.

davem, or you're just like me and I just gave up a long time ago and shake my head yes to whatever you have to say.

Welcome to the forum Goldberry and I agree. I don't think Tolkien would have made a good director (especially now adays) looking at his stance on certain quarrels he had with Zimmerman's screenplay...but I think it's clear that Tolkien would have had issues with many things PJ did, several of them which he criticized Zimmerman for doing.
