FOTR - sh*te

[Telgaladiel]

In the beginning of Saruman's betrayal, I thought that he too was more of Sauron's servant, but as his sub-plot/side scenes began to wind down, I started to get the distinct feeling that while he seemed to be doing Sauron's bidding, he had his own agenda the entire time. Loong sentence.<P>In TTT we'll see more of Saruman's wants and desires. Still, after my first viewing of FotR, I came away with the distinct impression that Saruman had a hidden agenda outside of Sauron's wishes. I keep forgetting that this is just three hours of a trilogy, and that it is no where near finished, so there is still much to be seen.<P>There is nothing wrong with discussing why, but alot of the "discussions" here as to why has come across as condescending and rude (on both sides). I also don't see any call for naming people that haven't made a spectacle of themselves in a thread and speaking of them in a derogatory manner. At any other forum, that would be considered flaming, which is needless and leads to that name calling.<P>I still think Saruman has his private agenda in the movie and we'll really see it in TTT. PJ likes to show his movie more than club the viewer over the head with the facts. I like that.
