Am I the only one who hasn't seen it? YES!!! The whole world has seen it and you haven't. Well, actually it took in 850 million worldwide(350 domestically) at an average ticket price of $5 worldwide = 170 million people have seen it.

I didn't see it, and $5?!! Here it is twice as expensive to see movies. How lucky the people bringing down that average are...

7 dollars? ?? That is seriously messed up. An adult ticket here is like 12 dollars.

I'm waiting for the Two Towers. Hopefully it will be better than Fellowship of the Rings. I thought the fight scenes in FOTR were quite bland, but everything else about it was wicked.

it held really close to the book, which can't be said about many movies. there were a few glaring mistakes, though, such as who summoned the horses in the river? not that elf chick, but the archer that joins them. she just wanted more air time so she had the director change it. i can't think of anyothers off hand, but besides those, it was really good.

The mistake wasn't too bad imo.

Then I guess I can become the second person you know that hasn't seen it (or even read the book).

It's not the big of a deal...A movie won't change your life...
BTW, I've seen it, whoopee?

IMHO, the books FotR and RotK were just a bunch of elven poems and degredation from the main action--TTW was where the quest and all the action took place. I mean, at the end of FotR, they just set out on the ACTION FILLED part of the quest--a whole book and all they did was walk to where the quest starts. If TTW is true to the book, it'll be the best.

I didn't see much of the movie since I was working(technically), but for the parts I saw, it was a fun movie to watch with the people who were working with me.

I really liked the epic nature of FotR, but I like the book version of TT much better than FotR.

Acctualy your still wrong. Elrond summoned the water and Gandolf turned the water into horses......IDIOT! (the movie also left out Tom Bombadil, an imortal human who the Ring had no effect on)

no, the elf summoned the water and horses in the book, and gandalf added rocks to help hurt the ring wraiths. i never finished the second book, and that was when i was in 7th grade...which was almost 7 years ago. besides, i reread the part recently.
