[nfbwatlk] The Hobbit described?

[Nightingale, Noel]

I absolutely agree with you, Mike.    I have read the Lord of the Rings trilogy more times than I can count and same for The Hobbit.

However, un unlike 95 percent of movie adaptions of books, I think Peter Jackson's portrayal of the Lord of the Rings has been remarkably true to the books,, and a great complement to, not a substitute for, the books.  

I guess this conversation is straying a bit from the original question, so I should stop writing.  I do have one other thing to add, though.  I can't wait for the Hobbit to come out on December 14!

Why not just read the book? Books are always better than their movies.
