I just thought their journey was sooo boring and laborious <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Let's not be hasty.<P>But seriously, you're talking about Ents. They are by nature SLOW.<BR>I actually enjoyed Merry and Pippin's part very much. <BR>When I read the book I flew through the first half because I wanted to get to Frodo and Sam's part. So the movie was really my first chance to sit back and enjoy the Ents. I feel that those two hobbits grew up in that movie. Merry's speach to Treebeard was moving and I just loved the look in Pippin's eyes at the end when he convinced Treebeard to go south. I think that in the first movie Billy and Dominic couldn't act out their part to well because they were overshadowed by everyone else. TTT really gave them a chance to show what they can do with their characters.<P>My favorite journey was Frodo and Sam's. It was my favorite in the book. I just love the interactin between the characters. This is also when the POV changes from Frodo to Sam in the books.<P>I liked Aragon, Legolas and Gimli's part the least. It's not that I didn't love it. It's just I love it less then the other parts. My reason? HOBBITS RULE!
