<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I was a bit sad to see that Sam went home to #3 Bagshot Row instead of Bag End, but I guess that would be a bit hard to explain. But it is still a nice referance to Sam's home. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>That is too bad. Really, it would not need to be explained, just as Gollum's crying on about the elven rope 'burning and freezing,' and the elven bread 'choking' him didn't need to be explained. Those who are 'casual movie-goers' (those who are illiterate) would not even notice it.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I really liked when they launched the heads of the soldiers into Minas Tirith, but I think that the biggest homage to the books I saw was when they made three movies based on them. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>That's a first! I agree with an entire post! An excellent observation, burra!
