   And here I thought he was waiting on the annual Dr. Who Christmas Episode.

   I have FIRST EDITIONS of LOTR. (First US editions, not British, unfortunately.) Got them one at a time as they were published. My Hobbit is only Second Edition, though.

   I need to finish reading “The Hobbit” so I can see where they follow the book and when not.

   In our city The Hobbit debuts at 12:02 AM this Friday. Roy probably has been keeping a calendar like this since the date was announced. He might even have calendars counting down for the second and third installments release dates (December 13, 2013, and July 18, 2014).

   I seriously hope they injected some kind of humor in that film. The other movies got to be as tedious and self-righteous as ‘The Ten Commandments’

   I guess you never read the books …… they followed the books very well. It was not a humorous set of books. Way should they add something that wouldn’t fit?

   Actually, I did read the books. Also read ‘Mists of Avalon’. Both were interesting, but became a chore to read. life has its moments of humor or at least some hint of whimsy.

    I wouldn’t mind having those. I liked the American cover design better than the UK.

    They add a lot from there Tolkien sources, such the appendices at the back of ROTK. This way they an show where Gandalf went and what he was doing during his absences.

    They don’t need to ‘inject’ it. There’s far more humor in the Hobbit as a book than in LOTR.

    Duh, you’re supposed to circle the important date so people don’t mistake what your countdown is for.

    I guess its just a matter of taste I have read the Hobbit and LotR each probably more then 2 dozen times and it always grabs me I often find some little thing that I missed or just didn’t remember but they have never been a chore. I like MZB also but I have reread her Darkover books much more than her other works although I also found Mists as very good.
