Stunning. Absolutely breathtaking. I mean, there aren't even any words yet invented to describe such awesomeness!! Being a New Zealander, I've been around ever since it was confirmed that New Zealand was going to be filming LOTR, and also being a Tolkein fan, the two have gone hand in hand with my anticipation, and zeal of the films release. I have not been dissapointed. My initial concern when it was said that the filming of LOTR was going to comence, was that someone elses [Peter Jackson & crew] interpretation of LOTR was going to take away my own interpretation of LOTR that my brain invented from reading the book, regarding characters and landscape e.t.c.
That concern has now been quashed!! After seeing the film, I don't care that someone has destroyed my own unique construal of LOTR, and I'm quite happy for my brain to adopt Jackson's interpretation of LOTR everytime I read the book, because Peter Jackson has created a masterpiece!! Go see it, and be be-dazzled!
