Jackson changed a few things to fit into the movie structure, but loved and respected JRRT. He is quoted that he didn't want to put in any "modern" or "his own" messages.
On the other hand.....well.....we all know what the Rings of Crap are and why.

...what do you think of Jackson's LotR trilogy? There's a whole lot of change going on there. *NM*

I don't know. I remember seeing message boards when the films came out.

It is possible for a person to dislike this show and not care about sex or race of the characters.

Yes, and not everyone who dislikes the show dislikes it for those reasons.

I think Peter Jackson & co. actually liked LotR

I agree, mostly. But the complaint here was that it is foolish to change any of the writing.

I just rewatched the last two Hobbit movies - those are sort of inbetween I guess.

Exactly my point. It's not about the canon. The films get the canon wrong left and right, too.

That's not what I meant precisely - for me the canon is still important.

Why did I not notice you post this on 'The Silmarillion' day of the 15, Sept ? *NM*

Because this show is about as relevant to the Silmarilion as NAMBLA is to Gay Pride? *NM*

I don't get points for tacitly making a distinction between pedo & gay?
