<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> we all must take into consideration that some people entering the movie theater have NOT read the books and don't have the fullest comprehension on the books <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Well, that's their fault. They should read the books anyways. The movies were based on the books, so if PJ did the job he should have done, seeing the movie would be like reading the book. You should realize whats going on in the movie and its up to PJ to do that. If he had followed the books more closely, and portrayed the characters and events as they should be, then there wouldn't be this criticism. And all three movies should blend in with each other, just like the books did. If people are watching TTT and haven't seen FotR, then they will be confused and uninformed on some parts. Just like the books. You can't read TTT and expect to get the 'fullest comprehension' without reading FotR. My point is that if PJ had put the books on the screen the way he should have, then people wouldn't need to read the books to understand what's going on.
