Yeah, seriously. Here's something to boggle minds. Tony hated what was 
done to the movies so much by the time he finished watching RotK, that 
he hasn't even watched the extended version. We've had it for years (it 
took us a few years to even obtain it, and that was through a mega-sale 
at Borders where it only cost a few bucks).
Tony is the one who insisted on us going to Oxford on our honeymoon. The 
sad thing is that we never were able to find Tolkien's grave. I'm sure 
it's far better marked since the movies came out. We knew the name of 
the cemetery is Wolvercote, but Wolvercote Cemetery is not in the town 
of Wolvercote. The cemetery that is there is very nice though. And it 
turns out T has some ancestry from Wolvercote so we may have walked on 
some of his ancestors.
Now that's a digression!
