Now now Iarwain, I can understand your grievances. I still have hope that RoTK will be up to the standards of FoTR. It seams that LoTR suffers from the sequal syndrome that so many others sucumb to. I do think that Sam jumping in front of the Morannon is pretty silly and out of character for the reserved Sam. If it had only been up to the standards of the first movie I would of been satisfied. I could forgive PJ many things (sam's in front of the gate, the gandalf exocisim, and the ents surprise that the trees were destroyed), however when he starts to rewrite the plot, it get angry.<P>Question: If you don't make a movie for the fans, whom do you make it for? I (as an fan who is really into this too much) want a movie made for the people who enjoy the story and read the book, not for people who just want a thrill ride or cool effects. I crave plot, not rewriten either.
