I read LOTR when I was 13, some 20 years ago now. I have read it many times since and as with all books got the image in my head what the world of Tolkien was like.
After seeing the film today I can honestly say I was nearly there, a few niggles aside.
I have waited 20 years to see this film and I am not disappointed.
LOTR is one of those books that will never be perfect on the big screen because of it's size and detail, and you will never please everyone, but all I can say is thanks PJ for doing such a superb job in try to realise Tolkiens masterpiece.
