.... [In reply to] Can't Post

honestly, there was just as much moaning on these boards a decade ago during the theatrical release of the LoTR films.

"I hate how they portrayed Frodo"

"What is this Arwen warrior princess crap"

'Too much Legolas shield surfing"

"Denethor is terrible"

"They wasted Faramir's character"

blah, blah, blah....


It is terribly ironic that so many people on here are either unaware of that fact, or they have chosen to forget it.
