Just kidding. I'm not a literalist.In all seriousness though, I see what you are saying. People may disagree on the merit of the films, but this thread does not seem to be the place to debate that merit. I can only explain the impression I gleaned from the movies (overall a very good one) and any 'feelings' that I felt conflicted with the feeling I got from the books (hence my post concerning my thoughts on the final passage of the Return of the King movie). Cheers, Angmar
