I'm not sure I have; I actually didn't think that anything complimentary would be welcome. It's good to know otherwise. I can cavil about them a great deal, and I think that the third movie especially falls down. I deeply miss the scouring of the Shire, and I don't believe Jackson when he says there was nothing they could cut to preserve it; I could cut it myself enough to put that in.

That being said, they (primarily the first two) gave me a lot of the feeling that the books give me; they prompted me to re-read the books, and when I watch any of them again, I end up reaching for the books. I am a once-every-few-years re-reader, and I don't retain details of what I read especially well, so some combination of the movies themselves and the way they draw me to the books have given me more from the books, plus some delights that are just from the movies.
