BEWARE READERS!<BR> I am aFNG and I am about to spew, so be careful. You might not want to get any of this on you.<BR>For three hours, I sat threw the gratest, most exciting, awe inspiring, adventure film <BR>that I have ever hated! I congatulate PJ for brining it to the screen. It was a task that I would never have dared. I give him much credit for his accomplishment.<BR>HOWEVER...What the hell was that?<BR>I absolutely hated: Faramir"s portayal<BR> Theoden's portayal<BR> The Excorcism<BR> The people of Rohan's<BR> portrayal <BR> Elven warriors...From <BR>Rivendell...From an elf who spoke only of defending his own territory<BR>I don't even want to get started on the way poor Frodo was done.No grace, no nobility of spirit, no moral fiber...<BR>And just when did Arwen and Galadriel join the Psychic friends network.Plus, How will Arwen send the Rangers, bearing a hand made standard, if she has sailed for the Undying Lands?<BR>I gotta stop now, my blood pressure alarm went off!<BR>On the plus side: Gollum was great! I started to wish,as I do when Iread the book, that Smeagol would win the debate.<BR>The Battle scenes wrwe great! I hope PJ handles the Peelenor Fields, and the battle before the Gates of Mordor just as well.<BR>Ents! Not as I pictured, but worthy of praise and the flooding of Isengard was nifty<BR>Overall, where PJ was in step with the book,it was great! Where he missteps is fair to middlin', but whenhe marches in a new direction, i want to go Gollum on his *** .<BR>...and thanks for your support.<P>
