Fantastic Movie

Rating: 10/10 (4 January 2003)

I loved this movie. So many people are saying that they left out a lot of stuff and added a lot of sappy lovey dovey stuff between Aragorn and Arwen. SO WHAT? They had to have that in there to explain Aragorn and Arwens love for each other. And about leaving Shelob out. It gives you something to anticipate now. So for all you people complaining about how he didn't stick to the books. WAIT FOR THE SPECIAL EDITION DVD. All the cut scenes will be there and you will get all the precious missing material you so love to complain about. I thought the movie was excellent. Gollum looked realistic (even though he did travel during day and he hates the sun) Treebeard was excellent. Sure Saruman wasn't in as much as I would like but whatever. And you shouldn't complain about this. You could never have all the stuff from the books in there. If they did the movies would each be about 5 hours long. And you need the love scenes and everything to explain to the people who haven't read Lord of the Rings what happens.
