I try to read the books and watch the movies at least once a year (along with Roger Zelazny's "Amber" series).
I try to bust out the books and read them to put myself to sleep... always a mistake because I tend to stay awake as long as I can to read them.

There isnโt a single black person in the entire trilogy. We should all boycott these films
The LOTR is written by a great U.K. author, based on his reality and a culture he grew up in, so what's wrong about that, I don't get it. If you really want to say about racists, you have goblins and orcs to protect, surely they are treated badly in the story and could use your protection. (just j/k)

Saw this in the cinema when I was 9 years old, first time I remember being completely blown away by something on the big screen. I felt the same way a few more times, especially in The Return of the King, but this is the first time I really thought "**** just got real"

BTW, did anyone else think the feminism plug with Erwin was off-putting/funny?
Did anyone watch the Hobbit movies? Since they're complementary to LOTR, what was your opinion on those?

I can and actually did watch LOTR movies again and again. As for those three "The Hobbit" movies, while there are many movies worse than them, watching them once is enough to me.
Although usually I prefer movies true to the original books, I like Legolas' presence in "The Hobbit". I like the way he moves and fights.
