<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Pookabunny: The thing I'm lamenting most is the fact that FotR movie was so much better than TTT movie. I know PJ can do better, I saw it! The things I loved about FotR are missing in TTT.<BR>And I couldn't make a better movie, but I could write a better screenplay. Eeesh. I hope though, that like Tigerlily I will enjoy the movie more on repeated viewings.<P>And PJ did say that TTT diverges from the book the most...so I guess that bodes well for RotK.<P> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>But the Fellowship is so confined to a small group in one place. Of course it is going to feel more intimate than a part that expands greatly. I thought PJ handled such a monumental task well.<P>Think in terms of the whole story. I refuse, now that we have another part, to judge based on one part but putting them together and seeing what we have. This is the story at its broadest point. The Return of the King will then draw the story closer and closer back to a singular point. I concur I was not as emotionally moved, but I was moved in other ways. Sams speech was very moving btw.
