You are most welcome. One of the great privilages of the internet is to share conversation over something we are passionate about rather than never meeting anyone who enjoys or shares your passions. I am enjoying sitting down with a coffee at the note pad and popping in here. If I do not like a topic or the slant it is taking I just ignore it. I am delighted you read them at that time in that order. I came to the Hobbit second so I have always wanted the story re imagined as Adult Fairie. During my lifetime the best chance I am going to get is now. Whether we enjoy all the elements, what I would say is last month when I was in NZ I had the very real thrill of being in the company of someone who works directly with PJ. His view like mine is he is entirely sincere and will keep going until he is convinced he has done the best he can. I think the hardest bit is now out the way and he has time to make the next two sit exactly where they should. My only concern is he keeps the big moments in proportion and using the operatic approach sparringly. I suspect the first real test will be the Barrels segment.
Curiously if Sir Peter has a fault it is the same as JRRT strategically he works organically on the subject and it ends up somewhere different to what he intended. For both the subject matter is a labour of love and the result is constant changes rewrites and surprising outcomes. The LOTR was started as a follow up to the Hobbit and ended up recounting the end of the third age of the world of the Silmarillion. The Hobbit movie project started as one movie for the book and a bridge - and then there were three.
I tried to save the shire , and it has been but not for me.

Many many people's main complaint with the film is it doesn't give any time for the audience to breath
