Theoden's Exorcism - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I agree here. It would have been fun to have something closer to the book with Theoden giving Wormtongue the choice between exile and riding to war. I also didn't like the way Aragorn physically held back Theoden. It seemed a very forward thing to do to a king in front of his men.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Precisely. I thought in that respect it was rather unrealistic. Theoden would've matched up better with his less rash self-impossed PJ image (only deciding to go to war after much urging), if he would've acted more wisely instead of nearly killing Wormtounge, rather rashly. If it makes any amount of sense...
