Oh I forgot to mention… I also watched The Road last night. I truly loved the book, probably because it was about the end of the world and I am quite excited about the whole apocalypse thing. The film was excellent with such amazing imagery of a ruined planet… I was I could have watched it without having read the book. Aragorn looked really great and the bum-worshippers out there will be very happy with one scene (-:

The only complaint about the entire film was the stupid bloody beetle. In the book there is not a single living plant or animal. Even the ocean is dead. However in the film there is a scene where they find a little beetle and it flies off. I can only assume they did this for the stupid American market who like happy stories… but surely none of them would be happy with one damned beetle! Grrrr.
