I think a lot of people are being very hard on PJ! It would be difficult to turn the book into a movie and make everyone pleased, and so far I think he's done a great job. I LOVE the books, and I stand by them like brick. What is written in the book GOES. But the movies were done wonderfully and I LOVE them too! I judge them as two seperate things. Also, at least PJ hasn't murdered LotR. Yes, he changed a few things (I would have prefered Glorfindel to Arwen but I'm sure he had his reasons...) but he hasn't completely chopped the story to bits. I think he's doing wonderfully and some people are just being too hard on him! Obviously he's a true fan - he reads the book before every shooting. And think about how much work and effort was put into this movie - no half-fan would have put up with that if they weren't truley in love with LotR!
