Stuff

I like Enya. Lord Of The Rings is my favourite book, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien. I find he writes better than Harry Potter, J K Rolling, coz I find, though her storyline is good, she repeats the words a lot, especially the last book, because her editor or someone gave her a deadline, which is the stupidest thing to give to a writer. Whoever gave it was an idiot and didn't know what he/she was doing. Look how badly the last book turned out? Words wise I mean. Storyline, as I said, is good.

Lord Of The Rings is long winded, I agree, but I like it much better than Harry Potter. The way he, John Tolkein, writes, he tells his story with what he believes, if he believes Fatty Bolger is supposed to be brave, and stay behind, he writes it down; if he wants a character like Quickbeam, then he'll put it in. He changes scenes, as in, from one group to another, like from Frodo and Sam, to Aragon and the others; at the right time, it made me think that I wanted to continue that part before I moved on.

So lets say, I'm reading about Frodo and Sam, then John Tolkein goes to Aragon and the others, and I want to just flip foward to Frodo and Sam again, but I don't because then it'lls poile it you know?

Many books, Harry Potter series included, change scenes too quickly, so even though the writers want that kind of tense feeling from the readers, they don't achive it, because they just change it too fast.

John Tolkein, though it is considered lame nowadays, was a big achivement last time because anyone with a good imagination wasn't allowed or wasn't given the chance or was thought mad when he/she voiced it. Or something like that. And Tolkein invented a new world. Not many writers do that, there is always a sense of reality in the story.

Peter Jackson, the director of the movie Lord Of The Rings, took a lot of things out from the book. Directors always do that. Chronicles of Narnia too. The second part was terrible! A lot was changed! There was no kiss!!!

Bad things about the Lord Of The Rings, I would say, the first chapter is a real drag. But once you get past it, things speed up a little, and once they leave Rivendell, things get going. But you need to get pas those chapters before you can actually enjoy the book. It's very lame, Frodo always gets out just in time, with the help of someone or something.

Thats all that I can say. This is By Enya, the song, Only Time.
