[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

I wonder if Tolkien's original idea was to have the Riders capture Frodo at Weathertop and (I don't really wonder this by the way, I'm just being silly) write instead about a hectic race to Mordor, with Gandalf chasing Witchy.<P>Hmm. Sounds like a Mirth topic. No, all I wanted to do was agree with Finwe that Tolkien's idea was wondrous. As for the movies and the things they miss out, its all just a bit of fun so people like us can complain about it on the internet. It tends to keep me occupied for a few moments each day!
