How about a muster or at least a regrouping in ROhan [too anti-climatic for PJ and co I am sure] or how about Aragorn taking off on the Paths of the Dead? <P>Well, anyway, I will admit ex-TTT [finished it last night finally[!] ws a great improvement over the theater version, which left a truly bitter taste in my mouth for all of it's glorious moments.<P>MY scoring is as folloows.<BR> FotR - C<BR>EXT Fotr - A-- or B++<BR>TTT - D [saved from an F only by the scenery and a few good scenes]<BR>Ext TTT - B- <P>So PJ gets decent marks for the extended versions, but should be severly punished somehow for waiting 11 months after the initial hatchet jobs to fix his messes uo!
