Man, I thought it was great. He made a lot of errors, but he had to please as many as he could. Most people aren't appreciative of what PJ did. I mean, just to see the books on film was great. I mean he did some things that made me angry, but you have to be flexible people. If he made it perfect, exactly like the book, number one, it would be like 5 hours, not that I mind, but it would be rather butt-numbing and well, a lot of people wouldn't like it, and number two, it would confuse the crap of everyone. <BR> Well, now that I'm done, I loved the battle sequences. My favorite study in history is the Middle Ages. I love the whole swords and midevil warfare thing. And PJ did make the most incredible battle sequences I've ever seen. Yeah, I dig the action.
