Totally Agree [In reply to] Can't Post

Yes, Fruity one, I completely agree that aside from the 'movie first' types, which also do abound here, us bookish types due tend to look through the books very carefully, even to the point where those of us who are gifted in the area of memory can find any passage or quote at the drop of a hat when the need arises in a discussion.

The part I questioned was'finding hidden meaning' in the works of Tolkien - not everyone I know goes in for that, even though, as I said, it is the modus operandi on this particular site.
Another Tolkien site I know of however, is very scholarly & simply sticks to debating the factual evidence found within the books as opposed to the essoteric "I think the text means this to me" type of theories I see mainly posted around here.

As I said, judging all Tolkien fans by just what goes on at The onering.net would be a bit too narrow of a definition.,
