I enjoyed book 2 >slightly< less than book 1. Book 1 really felt perfect, but with book 2 the nature of the editing begins to show a bit.

Still – this was a great watch, and the technical quality continues to amaze!

REALLY looking forward to how you take on books 3 & 4, as these should be VERY interesting to bring back down to the tolkien realm (and not the PJ imagined story).

As a Tolkien fan I am eternally grateful for your efforts with your book-cut series!!!

entertainment 8/10
fanediting 10/10
video 10/10
audio 9/10
original 8/10 (the fellowship of the ring – extended edition part 2)
fanedit 8/10 (but an improvement for those familiar with the story)

total 8/10

Okay, I’ve just finished watching book2.
Very good!
I really think you did your best with the footage you have to fit the book, for it is the purpose of this edit. Of course sometimes the pacing can seams a bit bizarre, but Tolkien did not wrote a movie script, he wrote a book! I understand why Peter Jackson made some changes in his movies, but this Book Edit is very pleasant to watch so far, and is a very good compagnon the originals!

All in all, great job!
