PJ probably didn't think that it would matter to the masses of viewers whether Merry's blade came from the Barrow-Downs, or from Lorien or wherever. A lot of moviegoers don't appreciate detail and technicalities (At least <I>we</I> know the truth! ). PJ probably only cared about getting the Witch-King killed, not minding about the tiny details that we observant readers care so much about. Anyway, we'll be seeing ROTK in a few months, and after that we'll have another topic to rant or rave about here in the discussion forum. <P>I do hope this particular scene will stay faithful to the book - Merry, Eowyn, powerful lines and all. <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I thought Arwen was going to kill the Witch-King in the movie <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Oh no... say it isn't so! It was enough that she stole Glorfindel's part, she shouldn't take Eowyn's.<p>[ August 22, 2003: Message edited by: Kaiserin ]
