Well taken.

I'll admit it -- I'm an extreme Tolkien geek and have been since junior high. I've read Lord of the Rings at least once every couple of years, well over 20 times now. Regularly re-read The Silmarillion and The Hobbit, too. I have multiple copies of The Lord of the Rings, including this one:



I've taught classes and led discussion groups on LotR. This full-sized movie poster is framed and hanging in my office:



I have the director's cuts of all the movies. While there were places where I had to deal with the movies departing from the books, I thought P Jackson did an awesome job of adapting the books.

So yeah, I liked them.
