[Daisy Brambleburr]

I prefer FotR. It has all those little bits of character development that I think make it much more watchable. Although the action in TTT was good I didn't like them straying from the plotline in some places (i.e. Entmoor), sometimes it didn't quite make sense.<BR>FotR also has the Shire in it, and Frodo is happy and completely oblivious to what is going to happen. Ignorance is bliss in his case. I like the idea of the Fellowship being united in the first film. <BR>The little bits of development are what I liked on FotR. As I have the extended editon, forgive me if I mention parts people haven't seen. The part when Boromir is teaching Merry and Pippin to fight made me smile, because it is the only time that we really see Boromir smile. <BR>FotR also had some funny parts, I think that Merry and Pippin are more effective as comic relife than Gimli. <BR>Although action is good I'm not a great fan, I prefer it in small doses. As TTT has a lot of action, I prefer FotR.
