<BR><br><br> The point has been made. Clearly enough. <br> Gandalf-we're not just about Tom's removal. There are many other unnecessary changes in the movie. If PJ is presenting his own interpretation of a tale he loves and admires, I feel he should be as true to it as possible. Why make uncalled-for changes? The removal of Tom Bombadil I can still understand. It would make the movie too long and non Tolkien readers would never get it.<br> But the expansion of Arwen's role-what for? And why must the elves fight a battle at all? Perhaps it's passed of as artistic liscense but I just don't see the point.<br> <br> Rest easy about the wallet Underhill. I said realistic, not cynical. <p>Humour is emotional chaos remembered in moments of tranquility.</p>
