To start with, I canīt agree with you about Boromir beeing a bad guy. Iīve always thought of him as a victim of the evil powers of the ring and its master. He didnīt want to hurt Frodo or take the ring, but heīs just a human and couldnīt resist its powers. I pity him more than think heīs a bastard. Of course Iīm not saying that youīre wrong, itīs only my opinion...

There are two characters that Iīm really disappointed of in the movies: Gimli and Faramir. Gimli is like a dwarf on a cirkus, always to short, canīt ride a horse without falling of and making rude noices in front of Eowyn . Thats not how I pictured him before I saw the movies (well, Iīm not picturing him like that afterwards either).

I might have the wrong impression (itīs been over a year since I last read the books), but as far as I remember, Faramir believed the hobbits quite quick, and I know that he didnīt drag them all the way to Osgiliath. He seems more proud, less friendly and helping in the movie. I donīt think Faramir is the sort of man that wants to keep the ring for himself, or his father.

Well thatīs my opinion...Even if Iīm not too happy with some of the characters, I think that the movies are GREAT. PJ has succeeded in making the greatest adventure ever to a real good movie-triology...Good work!!!
