It is regretful that Frodo didn't get to say his defiant line: "By Elbereth and Lúthien the Fair, you shall have neither the Ring nor me!"<P>But then again, I liked the extra tension Frodo's extreme sickness added. Because in the book they trudge on for weeks, and have time for jolly poems and everything. In the movie its a race against time every second. I find that I can appreciate both aspects, the strong Frodo and the terminally ill Frodo.<P>Plus I really get a kick out of the shot where the Nazgul reaches out its hand and Frodo looks at it in a daze.
