You're right about Strider.<P>I just don't really like PJ's portrayal of Boromir that much [though I never said anything about Sean Bean doing the role- he's awesome at any acting job, whether he's evil like Koster, tempted like Boromir, naked like Andy McNab, or just plain stupid like Tadgh McCabe].<BR>I don't see Sean in my head when I read the book [maybe because of the raven hair thing] and I think it is because maybe Boromir in the movie came off as pouty. Boromir in the book was witty, honest, brave, and devoted to Gondor.<P>Boromir still remains my favorite Sean role. Just check out my signature!
