I understand yer question, but I think that Peter Jackson was hardly trying to introduce a new theme.<P>"The world of men shall fall"-That does not mean actual physical destruction. That means enslavement. Degradation. Perversion. Corruption. And so on.<P>Think about the meaning behind the archaic label of "the fallen woman." The woman in question was not being described as having been physically destroyed, rather corrupted.
