I, like a lot of others it seems, loved the Frodo/Sam/Gollum scenes. "Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbits" and "Samwise the Brave" in particular.<P>I did like the part where Frodo almost kills Sam and Sam says, "Don't you know your Sam?" That was good microcosm for my opinions of the movieon the one hand I didn't like seeing them go to Osgiliath and was perplexed by the Nazgul/Frodo thing, but on the other hand, all of a sudden this wonderful part pops up in the middle of that and swings my outlook again, leaving me all discombobulated!<P>You know what really tickled my fancy? The fact that Frodo got to see the Oliphaunt. In the book he was sleeping, and I always felt bad about that. I knew it wouldn't mean as much to him as it did Sam, but I still didn't like the fact that he slept through it. Another one of my personal quirks. So anyway, I kind of have this stubborn tendency to imagine that he <I>did</I> see it, so when he got to see it in the movie I was all tickled pink. (Ah, those blissful minutes before Faramir arrived on screen...)<p>[ December 21, 2002: Message edited by: Diamond18 ]
