Dynalo 05/29/19 2:51:54 PM #4:	It's a bit of a slog to read through Lord of the Rings. The story is obviously great, but it takes soooo long for anything to happen. I like Tom Bombadil but it was the correct choice to cut him from the movie. It doesn't further the plot in any meaningful way, and just adds another layer of potential confusion to the viewers --- Assassins do it from behind. <cite>Dynalo posted [p:922527684] in Reading Lo...

The Popo 05/29/19 3:12:28 PM #7:	It took me three tries to get through Fellowship. A whole lotta nothing happens for like the first 100-150 pages... way too many descriptions and backstory.

The point of the extended editions is not to include every possible scene that could have been in the movie. It's to include scenes that were already filmed and would have been enjoyable to see, but for the fact that they made the movie longer than is reasonable for a theatrical release. Nobody actually wants three 16-hour movies that include everything in exquisite detail. <cite>_AdjI_ posted [p:922537933] in Reading Lo...
