Denethor was fine except for two things.<P>One was the bonking he received from Gandalf. I think the rediculousness of that little scene has been adequately examined at this point.<P>The other was the almost comical nature of his death. I think PJ just wanted an excuse to light a guy on fire and throw him off a really high place. Plus, what the heck is up with Gandalf's "So passes Denethor, Son of Ecthelion", delivered in such away that he actually appears eager for the guy to be dead?
