Sting

You do have a point, maiden of the Shire. The ring was terribly powerful, and Faramir being taken by the ring was understandable. He shouldn't have threatened Frodo though with his "A chance for Faramir to show his quality" bit and "two halfings, and a hundred men at my command" The scriptwriters shouldn't of had him take the ring to Gondor 'on purpose', I guess. It should have gone something like this: When the ranger came in to tell Faramir that Osgiliath was being attacked. Faramir should have said:<P>"I have not yet decided what to do with the ring. You will come to Gondor." <P>When in Gondor and he saw Frodo and Sam's reaction to the ringwraith he should have immediately decided that the ring was alltogether evil and had the two hobbits smuggled safely out of Gondor. Having him say: "Take them to my father, tell him, Faramir sends a mighty gift" wasn't a good call.
