Lily et al - I'm not disputing for one minute the book-based reasons for not wanting Arwen at Helms Deep. They are perfectly good and valid ones, and I agree with a lot of them. <BR>But PJ made a lot of changes made to a lot of characters.<BR>I still do feel, from my observation of this board and others, that the general fan reaction to Arwen and her plotline *has* been different, more virulent, than the reaction to other changes. <BR> Yes, some fans got pretty angry about Faramir, but was there a vitriolic campaign, some of it directed against David Wenham? No.<p>[ 7:10 PM January 27, 2004: Message edited by: Lalaith ]
