Yes, I was especially pleased to have the ending summed up for me in a sentence. Oh well, I suppose it's my fault for not having read the books!

Just read the hobbit and now on the third chapter of the fellowship of the ring. Is the hobbit going to be included in the story at all apart from just mentioning about the past? Or will it just start at the beginning of the lord of the rings trilogy?

 

[Speccy]

its only the 3 books of the LotR

erm...get your facts straight. i didnt give away anything about LotR to spoil the film. my references were to the 1st and 2nd ages which are not featured in the films.

The new front covers for the books have pictures from the film, the return of the king has an image of a group walking along a hill led by gandalf, I wonder how they get the hobbit effect. Anybody know for sure who's playing who?

 

[throdgrain]

I know sean bean is playing boromir.i believe gandalf is played by that old horror movie actor but i cant remeber his name atm.peter cushing? or is it the other one? the one who played scaramanga in the man with the golden gun?? o you know!!!!! who is it??

 

[old.ignus]

what about frodo?

 

[throdgrain]

no idea m8.will be great tho imo,even tho its just the first book i guess..

 

[old.ignus]

Well I'm off to read a few more chapters then, just got to the bit where the high elves warn frodo of the dark riders.

 

[throdgrain]

you know between the ages of like,13 and 16 i think i more or less just read that book,plus the silmarillion, over and over again.
which explains why i've not read it more than twice in the following ****!* years, but still remember it all

Don't know if anybody else has already done this but go to http://www.barrowdowns.com/Cast.asp?Size= for a list of the characters.
Brad Douriff is Grima wormtongue and he did the voice for chucky in the childsplay films.
