The Flooding of the Bruinen

[Sauron the White]

It is great that the films did something of service for you and others. I must join you in confusion about right and left and directions when I read LOTR. One time I took out a couple of ME atlases and attempted to track every significant movement that way just so I would have it clear in my head. However, that only proved even more confusing. So now I just go with the flow - regardless of the direction .

[Tuor in Gondolin]

Of course, there's always movie Legolas's
confusion about the direction of Orthanc
on the path of the Three Walkers.

And I did like the way PJ included
Gandalf's horses on the waves, BUT
I STILL WOULD PREFER FRODO'S BOOK QUOTE
"By Luthien the Fair you shall have neither
the ring nor me" to movie Arwen's macho taunt.

Good gracious! That quote in the book make me shiver it's so wonderful. One of the best.

I, too, much preferred the book's version over the use of Arwen in this manner in the movie. That line from Frodo is a great line that should have been included in the movie, even if it had been given to Arwen.
