I don't think we ever saw the Dead fight, but Tolkien had Legolas recount the fight later on. Also, I agree with the whole Sam bit . . . but I can kind of understand Sam leaving. I mean, I think he'd obey Frodo no matter what, especially if he thought Frodo was serious, and I think he also might have been wondering himself about those lembas. <P>I didn't like the whole Gollum-framing-Sam thing though- I liked it better in the books, because Tolkien portrayed Gollum in a more sympathetic light. I don't like the way PJ had to simplify things by casting one guy as the definite bad guy and another as a definite good guy. Things are rarely that simple in real life. Anyway . . .
