Rings-Thing!
Jan. 7th, 2003 07:18 pmWow, been a while since I participated in this. Bad kaydee. So, this week's question.
For those who have read the books: Did the changes from book to screen bother
you more or less (or the same) in TTT vs. FOTR? Any TTT changes that you found
particularly distressing, or any that others are harping on that bother you
not at all?
The only change from book to screen that continues to piss me off involves both FotR and TTT. Um. Arwen. Yeah. Annoys the heck out of me, and I have little-to-no-interest in that storyline. Aside from that, all my nitpicks with the films were just that: nitpicks. Nothing major. So, I'd say both movies work out about equal on that score. The one thing that bugged me more about TTT was the lack of Merry and Pippin, and the way their story was dumbed down. More so than the others, I felt. Oh, well.
I've already gone on at great lengths about changes other people have been getting all nattered about. Faramir, the ending, blah dee blah. I don't think anyone needs my sound byte on all that again.
