I despise this film!<P>Throughout the entire movie, I was thinking at the characters "JUST SHUT UP!!!". The bit with Elrond and Arwen made me especially mad. My thoughts: "Why don't you just leave her alone, loser? She's made up her mind, respect her opinion. You aren't the only one who can think of the consequences behind your actions! Just look at your great-grandparents! They did the same thing, and your were the product." <P>They practically took Treebeard out of the story, and the Entmoot was a complete failure. How did the armies of Isengard get into Helm's Deep? The Hurons should have been there to help! <P>Theoden was NEVER even proposed to be posessed by Saruman, and a completely different transformation occured when he met with Gandalf. <P>Frodo was a complete idiot, as was Sam. The mere thought of Frodo approaching a Nazgúl and offering it the Ring is contrary to all logic. And then there was the idea of Faramir taking them captive. They clearly took the dramatization of the story far beyond what they should have. <P>I realize I am angry, but the movie was simply preposterous .<P>-My boots were slashed last year, and I'm loosing sight of Middle-Earth today,<BR>Iarwain<P>edit- i just read the other posts, and realize that most of this stuff has already been comented on. I took no time to read any posts, I had to comment right away.<p>[ December 18, 2002: Message edited by: Iarwain ]
