Well, he did try to make the movies for all people, like those who had never seen it before. And like the scenes with Aragorn and Arwen, yeah he overdid them, but those are my mom's favorite parts. So you can see that he was trying to make the movie enjoyable for everybody. I think if he made the movies straight from the books, he would probably confuse tons of people. He did a pretty good job on FotR. TTT did have several big differences, but that doesn't make it a bad movie. Imagine seeing a movie exactly like the book if you had never even heard of LotR. I saw FotR, and that got me into the books. I was somewhat confused after the movie with the names and such.<BR> Well, there's my opinion.
