That scene was great up until Aragorn went over the side. It dragged it out too much. But the battle itself was a real good way to wake us back up after the slow scenes with Elrond/Arwen/Galadriel. I thought the Wargs looked sufficiently real, if not terribly accurate. I liked the way they sounded, and the part of the scene where Legolas sees them all come rushing over the hill. The Gimli bench pressing could have been dispensed with...though I got a twisted sort of enjoyment out of the part where he broke the Orc's neck.<P>I believe I heard that they put that in there to make up for leaving the Wargs out of FotR. You know how PJ likes his monsters! I read Unfinished Tales, but I don't remember the account of the Fords of Isen! Ah well, I didn't read the book in order, I hopped around a lot, so that must explain it. Bad, bad Diamond!<p>[ February 07, 2003: Message edited by: Diamond18 ]
