    Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

    I think the extended version was much better than the theatrical release. There are things that are introduced in it that are later shown in the Two Towers film. On one of the documentary additions on the DVD, it mentions that the first cut as 4 1/2 hours long. I really wish I could...

    I haven't found a good book chat site. The ones I visited a while back rarely discussed books. Go figure. If you know of any worth checking out, please let me know.

    sci-fi & fantasy section?

    I believe Darren is working on it. Have no fear.:D

    It was just as good as Sparrow, if not better. Your friend might have been disappointed because the novelty aspect isn't there. You already know who's who and what's going on...if you know what I mean. I've read reviews where critics say her writing is even stronger in Children. I've...

    Yes! I've also been reading chapter summaries to prepare. Even so, I'm afraid I won't remember who's who and who's doing what where.

    I need your help and your suggestions...

    I was holding my breathe waiting for someone to raise objections to the combination. :) I, for one, read mostly Sci Fi and Fantasy. I generally go back and forth between the genres, depending on my mood. So, I don't mind them being combined. Ok, I do understand there are those that gasp...

    I think the site is great, Darren. As I've said before, though, my experience with forums is minimal. Point is, it works for me. Since I've not written a review yet (I've been sorely remiss) I haven't encountered the problem Prolixic has. I think the Sci-Fi forum area would be great. Or...

    Science Fiction and Fantasy

    I've started reading the Foreigner series by Cherryh. I'm reading Invader, book 2 now. I like books about humans encountering, and having to deal with, alien cultures and this one fits the bill.

    Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

    I think they could have done a tastefully short summary that would have worked. It would have bridged the two films together. It's never good to assume that your viewers have seen, or remember, the first in a series. I think Star Wars films are the exception. They stand alone because they can...

    Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

    It had the feel of being the middle of a story, for sure. Which is not a bad thing. It progresses the story and adds more depth to what has already been introduced. I just would have liked to have seen the movie end the same way the book did. To me, it would have made more sense. But who am...

    It's in TT. I just checked to be sure.

    Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

    I saw it last night. What a rush! Has anyone else seen it yet? The CG of Gollum was fantastic. I was duly impressed.
