I used to have those trades. Still haven't read the books, I'm ashamed to admit. Read The Hobbit many times though. Any advice for ADHD readers? It's a Star Wars forum, not a psych one, why am I asking :p.

I know these movies are bloated cash grabs which are self-indulgent and overlong and bloated. But damned if I won't miss Middle Earth :(. I want to watch the EE of DOS before seeing the new one, but I'm waiting on the inevitable Mega-Middle Earth boxed set (Which will probably still omit the fucking extras from the theatrical cuts), and my libraries haven't gotten the EE yet, and it isn't available for rental anywhere. FML. So it goes, I guess.

Early buzz on this one was good, but it dropped fast on RT. I'll still see it. These movies are flawed, Lord knows, but I still like enough things about them to find them interesting, haters be damned :(. Reading a lot of negative press.

Have no interesting 3-D and haven't seen the HFR stuff as a result, but I've been reading about framerates lately. Kind of interesting.
