Disagree with most of it(especially that cra*about the Hobbits) and here's why: The control of the Ring wont come until later in the Second and Third movies. It's power did'nt show up so much in the first book and that's what happened in the Movie. There were three or four major themes YOU left out of your WONDERFUL list SIR. <BR> Loyalty,Bravery,Steadfastness and Love. Sams loyalty is shown ALL through out the movie. In the cornpatch with I thought I had lost you and Dont you leave him Samwise Gamgee. <BR> On Weathertop where HE is the FIRST by Frodos side,in Rivendell where he rushes into the council,outside of Moria he was the first to thwack the tentcales that grabbed Frodo,IN Moria where he starts whirling away with his pots and pans to get to Frodo,On Amon Muil where he runs into the River (and forgets he cant swim( to catch Frodo. <BR> Merry and Pippin are the same way. When they jump on the Trolls back in Moria, when they call the orcs attention to themselves. Actually all of the above were done out of the pronounced love,courage,faithfulness and steadfastness of the characters. It was the same way with Aragorn and Boromir(Who I find to be one of the coolest characters in the movie becaus he seems to form an attachment with Merry and Pippin)I'm sure that Legolas and Gimli will stand out in the next movies.<BR> What in the heck is wrong with Merry and Pippin? Pippin is an IRRESPONSIBLE TWEEN meaning he is supposed to get into trouble and be immature, most teen guys are anyway.And if you mean the firecracker and Vegetables and second breafast scenes. Here we go:The book does'nt say EXACTLY what went on at the party BUT I am positivley sure someone or other decided Gandalf needed help with the firecrackers. The veggies:Is Frodo the ONLY one who is privieleged enough to steal vegetables from Farmer Maggot?and the breakfast scene. Hav eyou known ANY teen boy to NOT be hungry ALL the time and not to be witty and humourous?And I think that the movie NEEDED the comical relief.<BR> I fyou want to continue this I'm open for arguments.<BR> Goldenwood
