mortal elf, my 'tension building' post has nothing [or very little] to do with the movie it has to do with how people are posting and treating other posters. <P>Some of the movie fans react to criticism of the movie with blanket relpies of <UL TYPE=SQUARE><LI>then make your own movie<LI>then don't see it<LI>then don't post here</UL> and many other equally trite and evasive replies. These are essentially invalidating a person's right to be here and post a response [positive or negative] within the acceptable standards.<P>The Downs will not tolerate people being negated like that, in defense of the Movie or any other subject related to Tolkien.<P>I hope I have made myself clear without ruffling any more feathers. but it is a point that seems to need addressing over and over.
