Another Year!!

Rating: 10/10 (7 January 2003)

Well what can i say that hasnt been said before. I love this film, so what if Peter Jackson doesnt have every inch of Tolkiens book down because he's got most of it, and he expands into areas which i personally felt were missing or bunged off into the appendicies, and i cant see what all the uproar is about. Remember people its a film, a film of a long book, which i can honestly say is not without fault in itself. Some areas would translate very difficultly onto film. The Portrayal of Faramir disappointed me a bit, because i liked his character of a noble man in the book, but his greed and power lust is there to show that men are not without fault, and he comes good in the end. The battle scene with the Wargs is a very nice addition, and Legolas does that cool thing on the horse. Shelob will turn up, stop writing threatening letters to Peter Jackson, give the poor guy a break, he's dedicated years of his life to these films and he's done a superb job so far. Now its another year of post production!!!
