Worse. I understand that you can't do a word for word version in a three hour movie. Sometimes things need to be modified slightly to keep the plot moving and all. However, I think PJ made some big changes in this one and I simply can't see how they are necessary over the original. He made some of the characters into entirely different people and I don't see any way it helped to move the story along. <P>As for characters. Gollum definitely wins hands down. Love the scenes with him arguing with himself. Eowyn also did a great job I think.
