what part of the trilogy do you think improved on what was in tbhe book if any.

Less singing.

ya less singing..no 7pg description of what a city looks like

I was about to say nothing from the film is an improvment on the books, but you reminded me of the singing. The over-description doesn't bother me, given what Tolkien went through in life I wont begrudge him describing some magical land and it's quite possible that, without the descriptiveness, the films might not look as good.

I expect more but the movie disappoint me a little bit. i don't think the movie is better from the book.

i dont hate it i actually like it. but after reading each book 3 or 4 times i find myself skipping it now for some reason

The stuff with Tom bombadile wasn't even put the in the movie for a reason!
i like the fact that the versions are a little different this way you can get a different experience reading and watching.
but most definetly i skip the singing in the books.

That's almost like watching Star Wars and skipping the scenes without lightsaber duels.

well you can do that in episodes 1,2,3 cause the acting sucked balls light saber was the only thing good about those movies

The book had a lot of parts where my eyes kind of just glazed over. Tolkien's a good writer, but, imo he's too much of a world builder. The books are good but I do prefer the movies.
