Post-DINK

I finally saw The Return of the King yesterday, and at Colossus in Toronto no less! I went with my best friend Ian who hadn't seen it yet either. We were both immensely impressed and very satisfied by it. I was literally trying to catch my breath during some of the battle scenes! I am already anxiously awaiting the extended edition of the DVD thought as it supposedly add an hour or more to the theatre release and that would make me a very happy boy indeed.
I still don't think I can read the books though, which is somewhat of a personal embarrassment for me. I just can't stand Tolkien's writing style, so please forgive me.
