Stolen is such a nasty word so...liberated from [livejournal.com profile] bloodkisses 

Leave a comment and I'll:

1. Tell you why I friended you. (If I can even remember! If not it'll just be why we are still friends, aha)
2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, a word etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you. (To which you must respond!)
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
7. In return, you must post this in your LJ.

I think I win of the stalking front!

Lord Of The Rings...GOOD CHOICE my friend. Now here's another question...do you prefer the books or the movies?

*hugs you*

I totally forgot to mention your Broken Heart Verse icons! I have run out of icon space right now though!

See, I found LoTR books really hard going. Tolkien rocked at creating a world and races and languages and history and all that stuff, but he sucked at creating characters and he tended to spend far too long describing scenery for no apparent reason. However, the books are still awesome for all that, for the detail and love that went into their creation.

But I find the films managed to capture the feel and essence of the books, while cutting out the stuff that was unnecessary. The films are just an awesome, amazing, jaw dropping piece of film making and no matter how many times I watch them, I am never less than awe-struck.

Why yes, I am something of a geek about LoTR. Why do you ask? ;)

I love that you are a geek about them. I was bought up on the books so naturally I prefer them. But I have to say they are possibly the BEST book to movie adaptation I have seen.
