: ... I'll get started right away! :)

: I hope that the upcoming film can do justice to the books. Can the whole trilogy be done in only a two-hour movie, though?

: Ralph Bakshi's attempt at The Lord of the Rings in 1979 (I think that was the year) literally covered only half of the trilogy, and didn't even include Tom Bambadil! :(

: What do you both think?

Bakshi's film was made in 1978. A lot of it sucked, but there were a couple of scenes that actually worked (though they were few and far between).

If you can find a copy of "The Tolkien Reader", which includes Tolkien's short book, "The Adventures of Tom Bombadil", check it out!

Back to Indy.
