Off Forum - Lord of the Rings

[Val]

Actually, I was surprised at how diverse a group of people there was both times I went to see LoTR(opening day and this past Sunday). Most of the chatter was pretty positive, and even my girlfriend (who is not into fantasy or even that much sci-fi) went both times (she enjoyed it more the second time, was able to follow it better). I was astounded at the range of ages from young teens to retirement age. I heard a few complaints about it not being "the complete story" and ( on the other side) how long it was, but most people were smiling (amidst the stretches and yawns).
