[Horse-Maiden of the Shire]

We can rant and rave about how Bombadil wasn't in the book, and about how Boromir wasn't supposed to die in FotR, and how Aragorn was supposed to get his gem, but overall PJ did a very good job. Now that I think about it, these books would be monsters to make into movies. Most filmmakers would take one look at the Balrog and at the problems surrounding the heights of the Hobbits and say, "Impossible!" But PJ did it. Same thing with TT (although it was mangled beyond belief for me). These films have most likely caused many massive headaches and sleepless nights for the cast and crew and they do deserve the praise that they're getting.
