Don't want to get into the main theme of this thread, agreeing (sadly) with the negative comments regarding the movie. Basically, Christopher Tolkien was right, & the book is unfilmable. You can't put the book on screen. But you can make a better job than this. As far as another director is concerned? No, Not Ridley Scott. But for any one who hasn't seen it, I'd recomend Christophe Gans' Brotherhood of the Wolf. What he could have done with LotR!
