Don't get me wrong, I'm not opposed to a Dol Guldur plot per se. I'm just not keen on this interpretation of the Ringwraiths being entombed (which I believe is what is meant to be happening here). Is it just meant to simplify the evidence for Sauron's return, I wonder, or is it genuine misunderstanding on the part of the filmmakers? To wit, did they not realise that the Ringwraiths were busy doing things throughout the Third Age and thought the Professor had never said anything about it so it was up to them to fill the gaps?
It just seems so... sword 'n' sorcery to me.
