Just purchased me a copy Lord of the rings 1

[Shrek2002]

And normally I never read books!

Guess the tv commercials has gotten to me, hehe!

Hope its good
I cant wait to see the movie

[elron]

Everyone keep asking me if my name is taken from this book

[e-van]

don't worry, it's good enough, buy maybe you'd purchase 'the hobbit' first, it's the prequel to the lord of the rings, and it will make you understand it a lot better.
and if you have to purchase, there are paperback editions with the full trilogy at amazon for $10.

enjoy.

I read "The Hobbit" & "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy years ago. I can't wait to see the movie on large screen. One good thing about the movie is that Tolkien's books are all being reprinted. The local Wal-Mart's had about a dozen Tolkien books which is more fantasy books than they had stocked for twelve years. I bought every thing but "The Hobbit" & the LOTR books since I already had them. Spent about $30 which is more than I had spent on books around here for ages.

Ah, to read good books again...

[Brian911]

I wanna buy it too...
and I really never read anything else beside my pc magazines ;)

whats the original name of the first book? cant find it at my local online store really

[Jamdin]

The Lord of the Rings books include:
1) Fellowship of the Ring
2) The Two Towers
3) The Return of the King

My dear comrades (boneprone dixit) you MUST start by The Silmarillion, then The Hobbit and then The Lord of the Rings. That's all about it :)

I went back to my parents house the other day and dug them out of some of my old junk in their grauge. Im reading them again and lovin it.

their quite good books. even though Hobbit is kind of childish... Lord of the rings is impressive i read them when i was like 14 years old or so.

Tolkien was amazing!

A professor of Ancient Languages and Mythology at Oxford University.

It took him 14 years to write all of the books.

My 3rd grade teacher read The Hobbit out loud to our class and i was hooked (shit, that was almost 30 years ago).

Also saw a good documentary on the making of the movie and it looks awesome. The director is brilliant and the movie will definately do the book justice.

Two Thumbs Up. Way the fuck up.
:D

I have been waiting soooo long for this film! I was given The Hobbit when i was 10yo and was blown away, I didn't get to read LoTR until about a year later - it took me a week to get through!

[Shovel]

Anyone watched Peter Jackson's earlier film Bad Taste?

[Katanaman]

Bad Taste/LoTR have the same director? No way!?!? :eek:
Bad Taste was fuckin funny! :D
