I'm amazed that JJ doesn't like ROTK because it's slow and drags on and on... after all, isn't Lodoss one of your favourite series? I had the hardest time watching that series all the way through because I felt they kept dragging things on.
Unfortunately, I can't post a personal review of ROTK yet because I haven't seen it. I intend to but probably not until next month when I get paid again. JJ has posted the only negative review of this movie that I've seen so far. I keep hearing terms like "epic" and "grand" and other positive terms.
I read all the books before they ever announced these movies were being produced. I did find some of the use of language to be tedious when I started but ended up being sucked in by the rich story.
So far, the movies have made some pretty major changes to the books while keeping much of the depth that I associated with the books. I expect the final movie to switch between ginormous battle scenes and personal internal battles of characters making tough decisions.
As for TimeLine, I loved the book and I really look forward to seeing the movie. I don't think the movie can be anywhere near as good as the book was but the story is strong enough that the movie should be enjoyable at the very least.
