But this has nothing to do with that stupid film. It's book canon and the film makers did not have any respect for the book canon. If the film had put the book plot on the screen the movie might have stood a chance of getting recognition. They didn't and the films stank. Having said that the art production was wonderful. I got the most gorgeous book for Chrristmas. It's huge and it's crammed with stills and designs from the films. Beautiful book, expensive too. My grandsons saved up for it for me.
