Thor has just left Hobbiton.
Sting

I was disappointed, but not angry, that the demands of making an action movie detracted from the nobility of several of the characters. The most obvious being Faramir but also Frodo, Treebeard and Gimli. I, however, greatly enjoyed the settings and costumes and the epic grandeur of a place I've always had a great reverence for. Also FotR was an absolutely wonderful movie and TTT lost a little of the magic in my opinion. Possibly it suffered from being the middle of an absolutely awesome story - it therefore had no beginning and no ending - always a handicap to any movie standing alone I would guess.
