I have been enjoying a little side project in preparation for the Hobbit movie. I finished reading TH and am now working my way, far more slowly than I ever have, through LOTR, as soon as I finish a book, I watch the EE bluray. I have found myself pleasantly surprised as I read to find that so much dialogue and images made it into the three films. While yes I will concede that much of it is given to other characters and at some times incorrect places. At the same time I seem to have felt my trepidation about the screen writers lessened by doing this. So my question is what specifically do you feel that they missed in the LOTR films that has maybe made you weary of the upcoming film? I'm sure this has been discussed before and if so I apologize, but I really would like to know what specifically has some of us so bothered. Please don't me for trying to cause a ruckus or try to change anyone's opinion, I simply enjoy the discussion.

It could be even more interesting to hold a separate discussion posing the flip side of your question
