Ok, setting all my grievances aside for a minute, I have to say no offence to the extreme PJ opposers but there is no way he would've spent $300 million without making sure that the films would appeal to a wide range of book and non-book readers alike. I am pretty sure that if you are so rigid in your critisism of PJ that no adaptation would have satisfied you. We all have our own personal connection with ME and unless we ourselves make our own version of LOTR, it will always be someone else's interpretation of the books, therefore always disappointing. What's done is done and can't be undone. I myself have tried to move on and separate the books from the films. After all, we all know which is the greater work, and that is what really counts.
