well i just think its a pity

That is logical but when you put it like that, it just makes me sad...so youre saying pj wasnt interested at all in having him in some form of consulting role?and was just solely interested in his stamp?

Even if christopher didnt think pj was the best man for the job, in my opinion, he should have tried to get more involved, to consult, to comment, to advise in any capacity for the betterment of the adaptation of his fathers work into the big screen...what else would merit an amiable and productive relation between the filmmakers and christopher...

I know some people will say, he is very opinionated, he wasnt interested in the movies, or he doesnt think they should be made , its his right etc...well, fin...but if there ever was a work of art that merited a sound and amiable working relationship between the two parts was lotr...

Wandering Ranger: yes indeed they have that right..no one is disputing that...its not a matte rof oweing something...is a matter of doing what is best for the film adaptations..and i think the best wd have been a diferent attitude and collaboration...

But how did Ctolkien understood that they didnt have enough respect for his fathers work, and as such should not get involved, if he didnt meet the filmmakers and heard what they had to say and show? Am i missing something? He , form the very beginning , refused involvement right?
