Additions that didn't help ROTK

[Altariel]

My grievances are many and mostly trivial, since I'm a stick-in-the-mud purist.<P>Still... I can't help but agree with the whole "Denethor-hurling-himself-off-of-the-bastion" thing. I really don't think it was necessary. Plus, like someone said, it took away what little dignity PJ left him with. He was unhinged, maybe, but he wasn't a complete crazy. <P>I also didn't like the glowing green-ness of the Dead Men of Dunharrow... cringe! I saw them as ghostly, pearlescent white... there is a part where they're described like that, "banners like shreds of cloud" or some such.<P>On the bright side of glowing green, though, I LOVED the Minas Morgul scene. I'd been looking forward to it since I knew there was going to be a movie, and it sure didn't disappoint. Let me reiterate: I loved it. Loved it, loved it, loved it.<P>Back to the complaining. I didn't like Gollum's turning of Frodo against Sam (non-canonical... *cough*) or Sam going back.<P>And that leader orc... was so... weird-looking... o_O<P>Also, I didn't like the way the dialogue between Eowyn and the Witch-King was trimmed.<P>I hated that the Houses of Healing were left out, and no attention was paid to the romance of Faramir and Eowyn. Instead, they were ignored completely, only sharing a glance at Aragorn and Arwen's wedding, and the relationship between Aragorn and Arwen was made into a far bigger part of the story than it originally was meant to. Too much Arwen! *cringes again*
