Willow and Lotr may be highly individual films, but there is no denying there is a strong similarity also. <BR>A reluctant short man guards a precious and powerful object and has to take it to a city whose name I cannot spell, but it is pretty darn similar to Minas Tirith...<BR>The Boromir-like character dies in the Aragorn-like character's arms, while defending the Tirith-like city, plus he came from a land named Galadorn or something (*coughGondorcough*).<P>I'm not complaining in any way about the similarities, btw. I actually find it rather fun. I have taken to calling all the characters by their Lotr alter ego names, and have a jolly good time watching both films.
