    I consider Sam is the main character of LotR, even if he is treated as if he is a background character. He is strong until the end, never even been tempted by the ring.

      I agree for sure. Although he does put on the ring a couple times in the novels. Another difference from the movies. He put it on while trying to get Frodo back after he is taken by the orcs after being stabbed by Shelob.

    FANTASTIC !!!!! Thank You so much for this absolutely BRILLIANT video. I'm a complete Tolkien Nerd - have been all my life. Read The Hobbit for the 1st time when I 10 - this is many many many moons and a millennium past. Obviously went onto LOTR and I love The Unfinished Tales. Love all your videos but this one is just FANTASTIC !!!

    I appreciate the straightforward explanation/review of these! I've been wanting to start reading this series but wasn't sure where to start, so this was helpful!

    Haven’t finished the video yet but want to say, I had the same experience reading the books where my favorite books vs films was opposite. I think this is because i LOVED the battle scenes in the movies, but it was so hard to visualize the battles for me when reading the books. So I really love getting to see it come to life in the films!

    I can't get my eyes off those incredible Locke and Key books behind you. Have you spoken about them in your videos? I need to get some kind of special edition of those. Love those books!

    Jimmy, could you please read "The Book of the New Sun" by Gene Wolfe? I would love to see your opinion on it.

    Hey Jimmy I had a question regarding the tower extended series, I havnt been able to find the stand extended version, so I was wondering if the normal copy of the stand would include the stuff related to the darktower, or is the material relating to the dark tower only featured in the extended and unedited version?

    • @jimmymango
      @jimmymango 2 года назад +2

      Reading Uncut edition will be fine. The correlation is basically Randal Flagg and the virus itself. Which is basically the entire novel. That edition is actually preferred by a lot of readers because it’s more to the point.
