I agree, i was also very upset about Faramir taking to frodo to (osgiliath, not gondor ) I also was very upset with the portrayal of Meduseld and the Golden Hall of Theoden. They made it look like a farm, with no protection other than 30 or 40 people. On the plus side though, helms deep was almost exactly as I had pictured it. Also, to agree with an earlier post, I thought lothlorien to be a much more happier place than portrayed in the movie, but with the turmoil outside its borders and the circumstances to come, I guess it might have actually been that way towards the end. last but not least.... was anybody else upset that Treebeard and the ents did not show up to help in the battle of helms deep like they were supposed too???? (not to mention the elves showing up? I think tolkien would roll in his grave if he seen that!!)
