Re: When you're of two minds...

That's a good point. I also think that for me getting into the fandom more and reading the books more makes me notice things more. Like characters that I didn't have as good an understanding of before, now I understand why movie changes don't work as well as I thought they did.

Oh yeah I get this. I thought the LOTR movies were amazing back when I had only read the books a couple times - not perfect, there were things that niggled at me just a tiny bit, but only really in a "nerdy" way, stuff I could easily brush off.

But the more I read the books (every two or three years or so) and/or the older I grow, the more I realize just how MUCH was left out of the movies, and just how many distinctions and nuances that make the book versions of certain characters, subplots, themes, elements, ideas, etc just sing are completely screwed up in the movie. And...IDK, it's getting harder and harder to dismiss them as just "nerdy" complaints, because honestly none of the things that bug me now are the silly little nerdy things like Tom Bombadil or the characters' ages or what the elves look like, they're the subtle literary things that change the underlying meaning of the themes and stuff.
