Careful, pandora - your accusations against Peter Jackson for allegedly not reading the book cannot be sustained. There is a huge difference between not reading a source, and interpreting it in a personal manner. If you watch the documentary supplements on the EE of the movies, you will see that he is a genuine Tolkien fan, just as we are. I would not choose the same interpretation of the book as he did, but it is not fair to deny him credit for doing his personal best out of a love for LotR.<P>Let's give credit where credit is due and above all, please don't get personal about opinions here - each member is entitled to express his/hers, so keep the discussion about the topic, not about the previous posters.<p>[ 5:32 AM December 15, 2003: Message edited by: Estelyn Telcontar ]
