    As a book reader, I still don’t get it. The LOTR movies are probably the best book adaptations of all time. I can’t think of very much they could have done better. The extended editions really make the trilogy sing. Would a book reader want this to have been MORE than 13 hours? That’s ridiculous.

      The best adaptation is Forrest Gump because they got rid of all the over-the-top bullshit in the novel and turned it into a great story
