I am still not happy with PJ did with the movie. Granted it was beautifully rendered but was not true enough to the stories or to the characters for my liking... too Hollywoodified, although I fully understand why this was done.

If a character is not in JRRT's Hobbit then PJ should not just add it to the movie to to tie the movie to LOTR. The ring ties the stories together as does Bilbo and Gandalf and Gollum, and Elrond as well. There are already connections enough to link the stories together.

I am probably too much of a purist. I still believe that PJ was not true to Aragorn/Strider and he should have stuck to the right timelines.
