Speaking in general terms a book is almost always better than it's movie counterpart. I feel that this is also the case with the LOTR trilogy.

However - in this particular case I personally love the movies, and I don't think anyone could have done the job better than Peter Jackson. From what i hear the Return of the king had it's world premier in Wellington, New Zealand yesterday. Critics that were present are already claiming that this movie will be the greatest of all three. I can't wait to see it and I don't really care if all the details from the book arn't in the movie. It'll still be one of the greatest movie trilogies of all time (in my opinion)
