Actually, seeing the seeming smugness of the screenwriters (PJ, FW, PB) caused me to further not accept many of the changes, most notably Arwen sneaking up on Aragorn in the wild, elves in Helms Deep, The Denethor flaregun, and the whole 'Sam go home' cr@p. There was no cinematic need for these at all, and could have been handled way closer to the books while keeping with the process of translating a work of literature into film.
