Willkill -<P>I agree the movies were not 100% accurate to the books. I must confess I didn't take the time to read everything you wrote, because I know a good deal of the book-to-movie problems. But I think you need to cut Peter Jackson a little more slack. Many people set up for themselves some rather impossible goals which Peter Jackson could not hope to reach. Remember, out of millions, he had to try to please as many as possible, while still pleasing the rest of mainstream America and the rest of the world, who are not Initiated. <P>Some things I agree with changing, as I've said before, such as the regular sword Aragorn carries. As for the others...I really think we should be grateful that Lord of the Rings actually entered Hollywood and came out as unscathed as it did!
