They got the harbor right, and the ship style, and the direction and the time of day...

In my mind, I never pictured an elaborate harbor or ship -- it was just all nighttime and sad and I never even had an image in my mind for the ship! From the book version,.I missed the star glass, and the sound of the waves -- I do wish Sam and Merry and Pippin would have stuck around for awhile for the deep meditative silence, and the fall of night, but people already thought it was too long! That said, I don't think it was a happy ending on screen or in the book..at least it makes me cry most of the time in either form. That little smile/nod that Frodo gives is a bit of comfort though, that the book does not provide.

I admit that my Middle-earth was shaped by Alan Lee's paintings,

I found it interesting that Christopher Tolkien cited John Howe and Alan Lee

I'm not sure Christopher Tolkien is complaining about any one specific art style...
