MenRWeak:You seem upset. You know, the sentiment that you operate with as well as your "anti-purist" remarks have already been aired.Have you read the entire forum? My remarks as well as other's that you would call "purist" have never implied that a "word-for -word" replica of the LOTR should have been made. In fact, many of our comments were directed at actor's abilities, and improper characterizations in the film itself, not discrepancies with the book. It is the mark of an unwise person who takes many statements from many people and attributes every statment to each individual.If this has not been as forthcoming as I had hoped, here is what I mean to say:I am not a purist, and I live in an apartment, not a hole.
