Nobody is even going to read this now, but ...LOTR! Nobody is even going to read this now, but I watched the movies first, and then was inspired to read the books.<br /><br />Bad plan, bad bad plan. The books are far too difficult to get into. I made it through the first two and gave up.<br /><br />The movies though...a masterpiece. They make you want to live in Middle-Earth, and you actually believe it's a real place. Confession: I cry every time I watch them. Every time.XiXihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364953168828471897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-24839733385474239202009-05-18T12:15:00.000-04:002009-05-18T12:15:00.000-04:00No, really...it's not wrong at all!

Although I have to admit, I liked the book too.<br /><br />Eva - I keep watching that clip of him singing to her in the bar over and over and over again. It's becoming sort of an obsession. That can't be good.<br /><br />Christine - I can't believe that I've been missing out on Gerard all this time. It's disturbing. And I like you're philosophy of putting books and movies into separate categories, although I'm not sure I have the discipline. I love comparing the two.<br /><br />Danyelle - Ha! I love that this is brining out guilty confessions.<br /><br />LitGirl - I'm seriously thinking of stalking him. Is that wrong?<br /><br />SF - I love that you hate Swank too! And that episode of the office cracked me up. Did you see the finale?? SO cute. Ooh, and I loved Nick and Norah too. But I haven't read the book.<br /><br />LMJ - 300 has always scared me, but I might have to suck it up just to watch Gerard in action. Is it so wrong that I want him to serenade me in an Irish pub and that in my fantasy I definitely don't have kids because my stomach is perfectly flat? Yeah, it probably is, but whatev.<br /><br />Sara - I SO agree with you on LOTR. I tried reading one of those books and I honestly felt like it was in a different language. I never even bothered with the movies because I was so turned off by the books. Just not my thing.lisa and laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18144863275895761642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-67020001153844323332009-05-18T10:08:00.000-04:002009-05-18T10:08:00.000-04:00I HATED the Lord of the Rings trilogy books.

Reee-diculous. <br /><br />My girlfriend has his email address and we've been fighting over who he's going to marry. Our husbands reminded us of our wedding certs. Sigh. Details.

Did you see the episode of The Office where they were debating whether or not she was "hot"?<br /><br />And, books to movie . . . hmm. I haven't read Nick and Nora's Infinite playlist, but I saw the movie last night and LOVED it. Liked the movie and book for Atonement equally. <br /><br />sfHardygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02268385174949496800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-25369589201985386752009-05-17T12:53:00.000-04:002009-05-17T12:53:00.000-04:00Gerard Butler is the hottest guy EVER!

I really can't think of any movie I have prefered over the book. I try really hard to keep an open mind with movies - and not compare the movie and book to each other. Whenever I make comparisons, I am disappointed. So, I keep them seperate in my head, and appreciate each one for their own merits (usually).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-82382441268233376332009-05-17T09:40:00.000-04:002009-05-17T09:40:00.000-04:00Oh, dreamy is the right word.
