What are your most hated parts about the L.O.T.R movies? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Well, most things have been said already, but I'll make my contribution anyway. I understand that PJ wanted to make movies for everybody, not just for us freaks, but some changes are so pointless.

The part I dislike most is the part where Rohirrim and part of the fellowship are atacked by wargs on their way to Helms Deep. Why, oh why, did you almost kill Aragorn PJ? Is the story too slow?

And why did you turn Gimli in to a clown? That walking joke is not the dwarf I know...

Frodo sending Sam home, Arwens connection to the ring (and her overalll enhanced role in the story), and the Army of the Dead trying to kill Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli (?!) by drenching them in human skulls doesn't belong to the favourite parts either...

Also, I think Faramir acts a bit strange through out his meeting with Frodo and Sam. He was really tempted by that ring. I don't know but from the books I had the feeling that he was quite capable of resisting its powers, letting frodo and co go.

Even if there's minor (and some slight larger) changes and fault, they're wonderful movies and all credit to PJ for making them. But next time...
