The problem was that once Denethor got belted with Gandalf's staff everyone just cracked up laughing. I thought that the worst part of Denethor was his death scene. It came off like Gandalf threw him back onto the pyre, really ! In fact, that's what people were saying when they were leaving the theater, "I'm glad Gandalf pushed that guy back onto the fire, he deserved to burn anyway." What's up with that!? The scene didn't go well, & it should've been closer to the book there.
