Re: Have you ever liked a movie/tv show better then the book it's based on?

I disagree with most of what you're saying, but I do agree that the depiction of the world was largely different. Even the elves were kind of different. The movies played off the popular image of Tolkien's world, I think, when his world is a bit more quirky than that.

To be honest, though, I don't think any of Tolkien's dialogue was particularly emotional. The characters weren't "real" at all to me, they were walking mouthpieces of exposition with all the authenticity of character interactions in the Bible or a history textbook or something. I think (most of) the cast of LOTR really tried to breathe some life into those lines, and for the most part, did a good job.

My opinion on The Hobbit movies is, to note, completely opposite of my opinion on LOTR.

The emotion wasn't usually on the surface, and it wasn't usually very interioristic, but it was definitely present. And I think they completely changed the character of Aragorn for the worse, and I think Elijah Wood's performance was completely melodramatic and almost ridiculous, and those are the two most important characters emotionally. Sam was alright although a little over-exaggerated but those are big changes and definitely negative IMO.
