I read the Time Magazine's article on TTT and I found out that they were portraying Gollum as a 60-year old heroin addict. Okay, I am not exactly a fan of Gollum but I think poor little Gollum deserves more than that. He (or it?) has suffered so much more than we could imagine and they would portray Gollum like that? he deserves a role with much more depth because Gollum, as a character of LotR, is one of those who give depth to the story.<P>Please fill me in with what you think about it...
