Don't quite see your point with Frodo being the king, it's easy enough to believe that by that title they mean Aragorn (he being the actual king and all).<P>I personally think the Boromir death scene was good as the people who hadn't read the books wouldn't know what had happened, otherwise it would just be like: action action action and somewhere along the way Boromir died. It being a film, there isn't enough time to get to know all the characters therefore seeing him die a noble death gets our sympathy much more than if they just come across him half dead.
