adventures make one late for dinner
i was born in the early 80s, and one of my favorite childhood moments was watching this movie. back then i knew nothing of the lord of the rings trilogy or any of the novels. i remember renting this movie when several times when going over to spend the night at my grandparents. well seeing how im a huge fan of peter jackson's trilogy now, i decided to go back and watch this movie after what must be at least 18 years since i last saw it. the magic was still there and it brought back quite a bit of memories. the only thing i noticed this time around is the speeded up story telling. as a kid you don't notice that, but now that i'm in my early 20's its quite obvious as how much they were trying to squeeze in. oh well.. still a classic!
