Liriodendron has just left Hobbiton.

It's funny, but as it stands now (before the extended edition of TTT) PJ has managed to make me understand, and agree with Denethor "liking" Boromir better than Farmir! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] I know that's "all wrong"...but Boromir comes across as a likable, personable guy, and Faramir seems like a real "d**k"! I hope this gets corrected, to at least equal footing on the brothers likability scale! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Also, the movie ents (ok Treebeard) seem "dumb". In the book, the "age makes wisdom" was a little bit of a stretch for me. It still took them too long (IMO) to decide to do the right thing, but "fit" well in the end. Once again, at this point in the movies (without TTT ex ed) Treebeard just seems like a hot-headed, boastful treeman! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Ok, maybe I'm being a bit cruel!
