Yeah, but one needs to understand it's not supposed to play out as though one is reading the book. The film plays out as it actually happened. That's why we see what Gandalf is doing, when he's not with the party. The only real change I can recall is the thunder battle scene. They were caught in the battle, let alone even witness to it. It was happening off in the distance. And that scene was a little too unbelievable. Even for a fantasy film. Also the inclusion of Ratagast. While I like the character, he never makes an appearance on their journey. Also Galadrial and Sauraman wasnt in the book and Gandalf wasnt as much either. Also I didnt remember Gandalf being there when the Trolls turned to stone. I will say that the changes were for the better. Also Azog the Defiler was not in the book and was only mentioned briefly that he killed Thorin's Grandfather. He died many years earlier. Yeah, but like I said, the film isn't so much a story being retold, but rather a journey one is accompanying omnisciently. So the only changes that may have bugged me were the ones that interrupted the canon. None of the changes really bothered me much but i didn't realize how many changes there were until after the movie and i did some research online. Of course it had been at least 15 years since i read the book so most of it i figured i had forgotten about. Really? How many changes were there? I should look it up. I read the book for the first time last winter, but I didn't notice that many changes. Like you said, none really bothered me. It's a great film, and I don't understand the criticism it's receiving.

I haven't purchased a CD from Amazon in a very long time, so I've never seen that before. It's deterred me from returning there in the future. -

For anyone that hasn't seen Batman: The Dark Knight Rises, yet, and are still unsure about the film, here's a more in depth "trailer." Warning: May contain spoilers.

How did 80's bands rate for you in 2012?
KarpetRydOFunk replied to Geoff's topic in General Music Discussion
Yep. It's why I haven't even bothered with it. But when has Geoff ever made any sense? ;} -
Is this site an archive for the CDs that pertain to our favourite genre, or is it an archive for the genre itself? Is it a site for collecting purposes, or archival purposes? I would be okay with the addition of vinyl, tape, Digital-only releases, and perhaps we could also list all the available formats for each album. Only listing "Digital" if it is, in fact, only available in Digital format, because it's safe to assume most titles are available in a Digital format.

Believe it. It's impossible to say anything negative about the man, because he's never given any reason to. Like Glen said, Wes comes across as a genuinely nice guy. Definitely one worth smashing a few beers with.
