Essex has just left Hobbiton.
Laliath, re your point about Merry

I can't put my finger on it, but I found film-Merry slightly seedy, somehow, and not noble enough.
I stated earlier in the post that I have issues with the Merry character. I said he was too 'street wise'. To add to this, I believe we do not see the innocence of his character in the film as we get in the books. Like you, I can't really put my finger on it, it's just not quite right.

Lobelia, re

I think that there's a lot more fighting between Aragorn and Boromir in the film than the book.
I'll try to fish out some quotes from the books to explain my point that there was a fair bit of infighting between A and B in the book, as much as in the film.
