I would rather affirm that Jackson tried (and succeeded for the most part) to "deliver" an understandable insight-view of Tolkien's Middle-Earth even to non-Tolkien-addicts. But for the most part I agree with your points, although I will be waiting for the EE (Houses of Healings), as for the moment, I am not that sure what people are really expecting. I must admit that I found this particular chapter in the books quite boring. Don't accuse me of anti-romantism! <BR>I simply believe that the scenes at the Houses split the dramatic moments of Pelennor and Morannon in a unduely way. <P>Greetings,<BR>EfR
