I'm bringing this up to the top.Guys, everyone who's seen the SE (okay, you can stop laughing, I know we've all seen it) - it's time to be smug.Did we suggest changes to the Council of Elrond? Did we suggest Gandalf interrupt by reading 'one ring to rule them all' in the Mordor tongue? Why, yes, we did, didn't we?Did we feel that the focus needed to be more on the Hobbits? That if anything, more peaceful moments needed to be spliced in, to balance out the action? Oh, indeed.Did we insist on the gift-giving scene? Yes.Did we say there needed to be more of the travel from Lorien to Rauros, to give us a feeling why the Fellowship relaxed their guard? Oh, yes.Take a bow, everyone. Half our suggestions nailed what Peter Jackson added to his SE.-Maril [ November 22, 2002: Message edited by: Marileangorifurnimaluim ]
