Faramir was portrayed as a 'bad guy' and it really bothers me. He was supposed to be the opposite of Boromir- beset by the same temptation, yet overcoming it! Yet he says "The Ring is going to Gondor," or something of the sort. Frodo and Sam are taken to Osgiliath! I really don't understand WHY they did that. More drama? Hardly. It would be much more entertaining if it was done by the book. That way people could see that there was still hope, even in Men.
