I debated having her talk about the book, but thought given her age and character, the TV show would be better. <br /><br />Thanks again! :)Talli Rolandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04780882465745107715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-6576717511279654832012-12-05T11:53:45.122-05:002012-12-05T11:53:45.122-05:00I'm rather hesitant to go see the Hobbit.

Happy ending back in Hobbit land - rubbish in the book they reality of how life can never be the same after a major war. The spitful ruination of the green plesant land of the hobbits was the bitter pill the returning heros had to face, laughing and dancing on the green - pish - desecration to prove all are lossers in conflict - Tolkien had seen this in his lifetime - it was one of the devasting endings that remain - those who have only seen the film will have missed this 'proper' ending to the conflict - okay rant over:) I did enjoy the films apart from that - they did mess a bit but too much and from someone who has prob. read the work over 30 times starting just after 1st publications it is high praise.<br /><br />great post as always:)alberta rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132420168908365099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-69124335615837194012012-12-05T11:06:37.243-05:002012-12-05T11:06:37.243-05:00Hi Deniz ..
