Diamond, yes, it's quite new. I wanted something Dead Marshes related and figured that you don't get much closer than a little candle. ("Corpse of the Marshes" would have been just a bit much). I mentioned in the Faramir thread (I feel like that's all I've been writing about today ) that if nothing else, having him mention his father a couple of times would be good to show that his father has a lot of influence over him. And I repeat, PLEASE mention that bit about his life being forfeit BEFORE they leave the caves. That way we'll at least see why he's doing it and be ready to believe that he might not be happy about his own actions. <P>Keneldil - I would have loved to see Shelob too, actually I'm completely OK with them leaving her out, mostly because it would have meant altering the timeline in a really big way; at the end of the movie Frodo and Sam would have been about ten days ahead of everyone else. Very, very confusing.
