I think Mortensen is <I>great</I> in the role of Aragorn - but, Towsend never got the chance, so at least he deserves the benefit of doubt... Who knows, had he actually played it, noone might have...

Yes, the "Sleeping Frodo" is obviously a production shot - it's prolly when they were taking the scene at the end of FotR where Frodo & Boromir have their argument about the ring. It's the head of...

I saw the Bakshi movie way back in late 70ties ('79 perhaps?), in the cinema. I was already then a fan of the books, & frankly, I was disappointed. While it did try & follow the storyline as...

If I <I>had</I> to make a choice, it would probably be FotR - but the two movies really are so different, that it's difficult to compare. I do like TTT a lot, too...<P>Harbinger fiddle??? Whassat? ...

Actually one of my favorite things about the movies, maybe the best thing about them, is the way Middle Earth is brought to live. Of course the way PJ depicts it isn't necessarily the same way I have...
