RE: [ZION] The Return of the King
-Tom- I found the Tolkein movie that I watched (something about rings I think) Just curious if there's a Tolkien movie that isn't about rings... to be a tiresome road movie where the heroes kept getting into impossible situations for no apparent reason and then being rescued in the best Greek tragedy tradition by deux ex machina. Not sure why you find _deus ex machina_ to be tiresome, though in any case I disagree that much if any of the conflict resolution in Tolkien's writings qualifies as such. (Qualifies as _deus ex machina_, I mean. I won't argue about matters of taste, like whether a given story is tiresome.) As for getting into impossible situations for no apparent reason, you may have to give some examples to clue in those of us who don't know what you're referring to. The Potter stuff is similar, but at least mildly entertaining, Apparently there are a few others, here and there, who find the Tolkien movies at least mildly entertaining. I just prefer reading Narnia and having the challenge of sorting out the strong Christian symbols running around the outside of the storyline. Allegory is certainly much easier on the reader, as long as he shares with the author the underlying knowledge necessary to interpret the allegory correctly. Tolkien, though himself a devoted Christian (in fact, he converted C. S. Lewis, if I recall correctly), explicitly denied any allegorical intent in his writings. The result is that the reader has to work a little harder, dig a little deeper, and try to understand his symbolism within the framework the author used to construct the fable -- which in essence is what Tolkien's so-called trilogy is. Granted, not everyone enjoys such a mental workout. They get little reward for their efforts, and thus find it tiresome. Maybe that is what you were referring to, though since you were commenting on the recent movie version and not the books, I really don't know. But I do know that since beginning to reread Tolkien in my forty-first year, I have been immensely enjoying the depth of imagery and texture of narrative that quite escaped the notice of my half-aged self two decades ago. I certainly enjoy allegory as much as the next fellow, but my respect for Tolkien has deepened. However, if the movie adaptations have left you with the sour taste of a contrived-resolution road movie, you perhaps ought not to waste your time reading the books. I can only imagine what the spectre of Tom Bombadil would do to your blood pressure. Hey, I'm Tom Bombadil, Tommy Bom-bom-ba-dil-lo! My head is a sieve, and my brain is like Bril-lo!

[ZION] The Return of the King
I also liked Harry Potter (the books are better than the movies), however LOTR movies are very good, though I still love the books more. I don't like much of Salinger. Am a big fan of Dickens and Irving. Dickinson's poetry is some of the best there is: I can still hear the flies buzzing. One of the more intriguing books I'd read in my youth was: My Name Is Asher Lev. Potok's showing ultra-orthodox Jews struggling in a Gentile-Christian world was great. And I always drink my orange juice quickly, so the vitamins don't leak out. Haven't read much Wolfe nor any of Freeman's. Mostly, I read doctrinal writings, science, and translations of ancient writings. Reading Hugh Nibley in my early twenties almost destroyed my brain for anything light hearted or easy. I had to retrain myself to read lighter stuff (like Tolkien ;-) The LOTR is an event-driven story. The world in which the hobbits live is drastically changed, and the epic doesn't end with the destruction of Sauron, but with the reestablishment of the old hobbit order, with the magic folk retiring to other lands over the seas. (for a good explanation of Middle Earth, read Tolkien's Silmarillion, as he explains its entire history). It is an epic. World war, huge years-long journeys, deaths, and moments of hope are all included. Tolkien said he based it upon a medieval Europe with Christian ideals laced within it. Several characters emulate different traits of the Savior: Frodo is the lowly Redeemer and destroyer of the darkness. Aragorn represents the returned King, who conquers his enemies and reigns over a long period of peace. Sam is the symbol of patience and hope in a hopeless situation, returning to the Shire and restoring it after it is destroyed by Saruman (sorry, for those of you who haven't read the book!). There are other symbols in the books, showing that darkness can be destroyed, even when all is seemingly beyond hope.
