Okay, I know, some of you are going to shout, "Thou art no purist!" and you may be right, you may be right. I enjoyed the movie! I was actually impressed with how they were able to turn what (as MenRWeak stated) COULD have been a 15 hour movie, had they included everything, and condensed it into a 3 hour movie. One of the things that I like is that hundreds of thousands of people who saw the movie will now read the books and be introduced to the REAL Middle-Earth, and read the entire story of Frodo and the Fellowship! How wonderful!<P>- your friendly neighbourhood elf, *River*<P>"Go not to the Elves for counsel, for they will say both no and yes." as saith Frodo Baggins
