What are your most hated parts about the L.O.T.R movies?

[Boromir88]

I agree with The Saucepan Man. I think you should just enjoy the movies and not just go around looking for faults.

The way I view it is, if you write or create, or direct/make, a piece of literature (book or movie) and advertise it all over for an audience to see, you are not simply opening it to the good parts of the movie/book, but also the criticisms.

I don't think we should go on ignoring the low points of the movie and pretend they're not there. There's faults in everything, Tolkien had his fair share of critics, and when you make something for everyone to see you are also expecting it to be criticised and picked apart, not just receive compliments.

Now, I don't think we need to carp and nit-pick at every little thing wrong with the movies, but there's certainly faults in the movies (not in just comparison to the books) and I don't think we should ignore these. There are compliments that can be made, as well as criticisms, and when you make something for people to see you must be prepared to receive both. It's impossible to please everyone.
