Re: "Yeah JRR Tolkien was an idiot and you are a genius."

Well that leaves one of two possibilities if you thought the movies were stupid.

1. You thought jackson failed miserably to realize the books cinematically

Bingo!

or 2. whether you know it or not you think the books are also stupid.

Try again!

So if you think Jackson failed to bring the original content and intent of Tolkien please feel free to tell us how and why. Otherwise deal with the fact that you just stuck your foot in your mouth.

Like I said, do a search.

I'll try getting back to you. I've got a job to do here. But, no, Jackson did not bring the original content and intent of Tolkien to film. I'd be more than happy to debate the point with you.

But that said, so what? That doesn't prove Jackson's stupidity in the slightest. In "failing" to be faithful to the content and intent of the original, or in pointedly departing from them, a good film still might have resulted. Likewise, faithfulness doesn't assure success. That you can't seem to see that I assume to be characteristic of most of the praise for the films.
