Seemingly it has led you to a missing king...

DE is now in a rotten mood because he no longer has a king either so he does something unexpected (well, maybe not quite so unexpected):

G k10 x k9

I figured I'd lose the king anyway, so I thought it better to let it go and get another one instead of wasting time letting myself be chased around in circles.

I'm highly considering it, since this would be my first time and it would be nice to go in the wake of Episode VII.

I thought this is happening before TFA comes out....

^But remember that in Tolkien's time, one of the reasons for changing the story would have been the difficulty of representing some of it onscreen due to limitations in special effects. Although I suppose animated films wouldn't have had that problem.

I believe it's because any page you've posted on takes forever to load for everyone who doesn't have a really good internet connection.

For The Jungle Book Walt deliberately tried to create something original and avoid telling the same story in the book--IIIRC, most of the people working on the movie had never read it (though that's probably pretty normal).

I agree. I see the books and the movies as separate entities--I don't expect a movie to be entirely faithful to its source material. I expect it to do its own thing, and I got what I expected. I prefer the books, but the movies are great in their own way.

Mace Windu's "pink" lightsabre has no significance--he asked if he could have one because he thought it would be cool and George let him. It was not built into the story in any way.

In my opinion, the prequels did not suck. I enjoyed them as much as the OT and my favorite of the 6 is ROTS, but I love them all. However, a number of people did not enjoy the PT for various reasons, so I accept that they are not for everybody.

That's pretty much exactly what I thought until I was about 12. :P
