Silmaril

First of all, Id like to say that though I've had quite a lot of complaints regarding the movies' inconsistency with the books (so sue me! I'm a real nitpicker), I still quite liked these film adaptations.<P>My wish list:<P>I would have wanted to see Prince Imrahil, Ellrohir & Elladan, and Halbarad. And more of Éomer.<P>...And less of Arwen. I didn't really appreciate that whole "Arwen is dying" melodrama.<P>I wish Gollum hadn't set Frodo up against Sam. What was that for anyway? And I hated the way they kept referring to lembas as <I>lembas-bread</I>.<P>The way "Ëarendil" was pronounced. Or shall I say, <B>mis</B>pronounced.<P>Didn't King Elessar wear his circlet to battle? ... And yes, I'd like to not see that moth at the Black Gate.<P>The Eye: It looked like something you would see in Nickelodeon. <P>I would have liked to see a less-mean Theoden and a less-psycho-looking Denethor.<P>A little bit more of Saruman and Grima.<P>Just a little <I>less</I> of Legolas.<P>And oh, look! Where did Frodo get those clothes after the orcs stripped him naked? <P>And just to insert a bit about TTT: I wish Haldir didn't die that way.<BR>At the top of my list: Faramir. I think all of you know what I mean.<p>[ 4:27 AM January 24, 2004: Message edited by: Kaiserin ]
