Now that the majority of the Barrowdowns (or somthing like that) has seen TTT and are posting their opinions I seem to come across quite a few disapointments. This disapoints me since I thought the movie was spectacuallar and though there were changes for better or for worse I belive in making lemonade when life gives you lemons. <P>As I try to make excuses in my head of why the changes were acceptiable I keep thinking "Well, at least it's not Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings." <P>Then I start to think. "Is PJ's version better?" What do you think? Are Ralph's character's more like Tolkien's? Is his format for his movies better set up?<P>Should we be thankfull for what we have? Or should we claim that the lemonade PJ made out of lemons is too sour?<P>
