Exactly! Which is why I'm quite glad that dear old Tom was left out-I absolutely love him and I would be devestated if he was somehow ruined.

To be perfectly honest, it would probably take me less time to state what changes I DON'T like rather than those I don't mind. There are far less of those. A few that come to mind, however, are the slimming of events in the Shire before departure, and the same with Bree, the age of the hobbits (the stupidity of the hobbits is another matter...), changing Arwen for Glorfindel, and so on. And while I did mind the elves at Helm's Deep at first, I came to accept it. Now I love the first part of it-especially when Aragorn hugs Haldir. The look on Haldir's face is priceless!
