Well, I'm glad I'm not too horrible, I guess.

And the horse-love was definitely let in. Showing affection to an animal is perfectly alright. It's those icky people Saudi censorship is always worried about.

I guess the correct term is Rohirrim, innit? I've completely forgotten, how silly of me. Oh well, they're not so awesome in the movies that one'll bother to remember (and being separated from my books means that I remember even less).

Seriously - they don't just look poor, that wouldn't be the problem. They look downright stupid. It makes me sad. Especially as it's such a huge contrast with Eowyn. The matted hair gets to me too. I'm not saying that people should look perfect in movies - I'm not a fan of perfection, it's boring - but come on. I think about how other people are portrayed, when they're a bit down on their luck, even though they're still great and they haven't forgotten their roots - and that's not IT. It's the facial expressions more than anything.
