The whole story concept was always so overwelming to me.For some reason, I just couldnt let my psyche go and throw myself into the complicated thing. To me, it required too much work, to pay attention to all of the story detail.
A film experience based on could only short-change whatever work the author put into it. I would rather try reading the Classics Illustrated version of it...if there was one. Or Cliff Notes.
Follow Ups:
Remember the quote from Lord Acton...'Power corrupts ....etc.'Watch it again with this line in mind......this is really the whole of Tolkien's point.
