My mom refuses to watch anything remotely 'scary' so she hadn't seen Lord of the Rings. I managed to trick her into watching the first movie by watching a vlog of some people visiting the hobbit holes in New Zealand.
She loved it. She didn't like the orcs and the balrog, and the fighting, but she loved the story, all the beautiful nature, the lighthearted nature of the hobbits, all that good beautiful stuff. We saw each of the three movies on a different day and she was the one who asked to see each of the sequels. It was nice to share one of my favorite things with her.
My favorite new movie I saw this year was Dune. It was the first movie I've seen in a long while that made me go "Was that it? Where's the rest of it? That can't be all there is. I want more!" needless to say I'll be seeing the sequel in the cinema. I loved the books and I loved the movie too.
