I don't understand why everyone has such a loathing for the movie. I think that Peter Jackson did a great job with it. It's hard to please the greater human race AND the Tolkien fans equally. I can imagine that he was really scared when making it because it has so many followers. I heard in some interviews that the actors were really worried about how die-hard fans would critique their performances. Making movies is a hard business and a lot of work goes into them, so I don't see why they could get shot down. I don't think that anyone could've done a better job.<BR>Yes, Tolkien may have disagreed with some things in the film, but if he were still alive he would probably feel honored to have his work recognized by so many & I am sure that it would have not been made unless he was right there on the set.<BR>Cut the movie makers some slack. It's not their fault that they couldn't get everything exact.<BR>I am not trying to offend anyone, I am just expressing my opinion because I am an actress and understand the work and process involved in making films. Sorry if I did offend anyone.
