My husband calls that scene "Boromir's Revenge" because it's Boromir's bracer that gets caught on the Warg's saddle. <P>I thought the scene was silly when I first saw it (apparently in Middle Earth armor floats), but after reading the posts here I have to concede it did its job.<P>Someone on another thread complained that after Gandalf's "death" in FotR and Aragorn's "death" in TTT, Frodo's "death" in Shelob's Lair is going to lose its impact. I thought that made good sense.<P>Great post, Diamond18!<P>-Lily
