Of course, my opinion would lead the movies to follow the books a bit more than a 'little', but I wouldn't say that the movies should follow the books exactly, and I am convinced that davem would not say so, either.
Well I see no point in asking for a 'little' more closeness. It simply becomes petty. There are all sorts of things from the books that could be added in as being a 'little' closer, and all sorts of things from the books that could be taken out and it would be a 'little' further away. I believe what we're debating is the big issues -the Council, Tom, etc.
