Gorwingel has just left Hobbiton.

Well I think it is just because we really want these films to be the best they can possibly be. We understand that they have to appeal to all audiences, and that they can't have everything that the books contain, but most of us have read the books, and we want them to have all the things that we personally think they should have. I don't know, but it is just hard to explain. I don’t have a problem with Peter Jackson, and I do think that he did a pretty good job on the films.<P>I also think that maybe some of the opinions you find on this site are because it tends to be a very book related forum, most of the members are primarily book fans (I don’t want people to get mad at me, I know that not everyone is that way. We have all types of people here. This is just what I notice). Who (well the people who were here before the films were released) were not exactly comfortable with the idea of their favorite novels being turned into films. But then again I do have to say that many of the opinions have not been as critical of Peter Jackson as I have seen on other sites.
