As soon as I heard the movie was coming out I bought the books. I was able to finish all by the movie premier here in NY and the movie is loyal to the book. It changes small things and ommits some characters. I think it was done because of the time, trust me...it was long enough but if they fit in as much detail as Tolkein put in from the jump, theaters would need to hose people down every few hours to keep em awake.
The book is wayyy better than the movie, and I loved the movie. You'll apreciatte the movie ten times over when you finish The Return of The King.:eek: Great Read
