ewww......Mary Sue's. *shudders* As far as the movie goes, I store my memories of Tolkien's world in a closet out of the way where I can't see it while I'm trying to watch the movie. Or else I'm sitting there cringing...But I do have to say I have to add some of PJ's work to my Tolkien memory banks. Sean Bean's portrayal of Boromir was the best. It really made him go from 2d to 3d.<P>But I do agree, it's like reading a fanfic. Which is sad to say considering I just saw a glorified fanfic some call Star Trek - Nememis...<p>[ December 19, 2002: Message edited by: Sleeping Beauty ]
