The Hobbit
I think I may be the only person in America who hasn't seen any of the "Lord of the Rings" movies. which is strange, because I read and loved "The Hobbit" and all three of the "Rings" books when I was in high school. don't know how I let those movies get past me.
But Friday night Drew and I went to see the new movie, "The Hobbit". A very charming movie, true to the spirit of the book. Of course, the movie foreshadows the Rings trilogy in ways the book never did. Before I saw the movie I wondered how they were going to find enough material for three movies out of one simple book, but this first movie seems to be OK.
Now, of course, I must find the Rings trilogy on DVD, because I am not able to wait for the next installment of "The Hobbit".
Afterwards we wound up at Denny's. You know they have a "Hobbit-inspired" menu right now? I had the turkey dinner and Drew had an egg and sausage skillet. We got collectible cards as part of the package.
Another fine evening.
