how do you like the portrayal of frodo? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

It must be one of the greatest mysteries of the 21st century how a series of films which is so terribly bad by some estimates here could actually take in a combined $4 billion US dollars in combined revenue, crack the All Time Box Office Top Ten List including only the second film to earn over a billion dollars, win 17 Academy Awards including Best Film, and recieve an extremely high level of critical acclaim.

It could be that the film buying public over much of the entire world felt that the portrayal of these characters worked just fine. Professional critics and industry professionals seemed to feel the same way.
