I finally watched the Lord of the Rings series. For all the raving that people do about it, I really did not like it. Star wars is a lot better, because , thankfully, it is not so intense. The only parts that I really like in the movie are the when they are in the Shire and when they are in Rivendelle. My favorite characters are (in order of favor) Legolas, Pippin, Aragorn, Gandalf, Sam, Merry, Aragorn, Gimli, Arwen, Eowyn, and oh yeah, Faramir. I am currently reading the books, which I prefer to the movies, beacuse it is way less stressful. Legolas is definately the best thing about the movies. Everyone here thinks that he looks like a girl, but he so does not!!!! the sad part is, in the book, the whole romancey thingy is virtually non exisitent! Which is like such a bummer!!! And in the book, Arwen is not eh daughter of Elrond, she is the daughter of the Creepy white elf lady that creeps Frodo out with her mirror thingy. Oh yeah, Galadriel. ANd Gollum, well he just creeps me out, in the book and in the movie. I mean he does bite off Frodo's finger, and the little creep eats raw fish alive. I am not to sure what exactly to think of Frodo. I know that he is the main character and all, but I really do not like him too much. But I sure feel sorry for poor Samwise Gamgee. He is such a help to Frodo, then Frodod ditches him for Smeagol of all people! How stupid could Frodo be for Pete's sake?
