I think Elijah Wood is a wonderfully gifted actor, and I love watching his version of Frodo on screen, but the thing is, it is his version (or the screenwriters), not the book version. <BR>In the book, Frodo seemed to be a way braver charater, but in the movie he is kind of whimpy (in a way). <BR>I am <B>NOT</B>saying that I do not like it, I actually kind of like the haunted look that he has through most the film.<P>I wish Elijah Wood would have read the books before he had filmed the films, because some of the other actors (example:Ian McKellan, Sean Astin)who had read the books, seemed to hit their charaters right on the mark (because those two charaters act exactly like they do in the book)<P>But for me Frodo is a little off key, but I still like the movie version.<BR>OK, I like both
