Pocahontas is American history and they couldn't even respect that enough to keep it factual. I can't imagine how they would have butchered Tolkien's work. Actually, I'd rather not think about it <P>As for PotC, it was a very enjoyable movie, but it did have it's cheesy moments, though they were balanced enough and so obvious that they made fun of themselves and were part of the film's enjoyment. Such things do not belong in LotR, no no no. <P>Besides, the last thing I wanna see are my beloved characters with huge, annoying, out of place song numbers Can you imagine the ringwraiths singing on weathertop? <P>"We march, we march, we march to kill the hobbits!...."
