I am sort of with you Meela...cause I like Faramir in the book and visually as well - lol.<P>I have heard rumours that PJ will attempt to "redeem" Faramir's charachter in the extended version of TTT, like he did with the Galadriel gift giving scene in FOTR. I guess I holding out until November to make my final decision.<P>What concerns me is that in the ROTK, we are to feel sympathy for Faramir and his situation and to be happy that he finds happiness in the end. I worry that by painting him as such a bad guy, the mainstream audience will not feel that way, or even worse that PJ completely minimizes the Faramir character in the third movie in order to pump up Aragorn more and if that happens....<P>Nope not going there...not yet...
