<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>How can you concieve of making a movie following a book to a tee? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Point taken. Some changes are necessary. However, in the first movie PJ made a remarkable attempt at faithfully recreating the book as closely as he could. In TTT he did not keep the same standard with regard to the book at all. There is no justifiable reason for changing Faramir and his interaction with Frodo. For some of the other changes I have heard reasons that at least can be understood, if not agreed with. <P>What is the point in making a movie from a book if you don't make the movie like the book? PJ has a responsibility to Tolkien and to all of us. This is not PJ's story to change as he sees fit, it is JRRT's story.
