Hm... it seems I've heard quite a few complaints about each character whilst browsing through the forum. Care for a list?<P>Gandalf- Too little screentime; blocking Eomer's glory at the charge of the riders; his horse's entrance is corny<P>Aragorn- Too much screentime; shadowing Leggie and Gimli<P>Legolas- Shadowed by Aragorn; annoying when saying things (somewhat) out of nowhere<P>Gimli- Too much comic relief<P>Frodo- Bad acting, corrupted too early, etc.<P>Sam- Annoying... for what reason I know not<P>Faramir- Unnecessarily weak-minded<P>Treebeard- Weird-looking; difference of decision than book<P>Merry/Pippin- Still too dumb or immature; not enough screentime<P>Arwen- She's not supposed to be here!!<P>Elrond- Annoying<P>Theoden- A grump<P>Eomer- Shadowed by Gandalf<P>Haldir- He's not supposed to be there; he shouldn't have died, too detached and cold; etc.<P>I've basically heard some complaint about everyone in TTT but Eowyn and Gollum... man, this movie must really stink! I'm not trying to start a debate/argument/flaming match, I am just pointing out how many complaints have been made around here about the vast majority of the characters.<P>That said, I have one to add! Faramir WAS unnecessarily weak-minded.
