<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> in the drafts of TTT Tolkien had the Dead reaching out to grab Frodo and Sam <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I was just waiting for that to happen! In the Dead Marshes it's very obvious the PJ's other films were horror films.. I was waiting for something like in 'Minority Report' were the precog grabs Tom Cruise, scaring me halfway to death, and I was glad that didn't happen. Even if I was waiting for it, it would've made me wet my pants...<P>Back to the topic.. I liked the Dead Marshes ok, but I imagined them to be more water and less plants(more soggy), at night, with ghostly, green lights instead of flames and with fog. But you know, PJ might picture them like this, we'll never know. He has said several times that these movies are formed from the way he and his colleagues picture Middle-Earth.
