Also, the characters being strong worked in the books. Tolkien's words and the nature of words in general allow the characters to be strong. But in the movies, the audience is actually seeing it. Maybe PJ toned down the characters strength in order to avoid making the movie look like just another hero-filled, gawdy fantasy film.
