ttt isn't much better, in fact its not as good, action is not what makes a good movie, fotr is much better

The action in and of itself was fine- I don't care that PJ added things like Aragorn and Gimli jumping onto the ramp and then Legolas pulling them back in with a rope. That's fine. The thing that I don't like is when, for the sake of making a movie more 'thrilling', he has to cut into time that could have been spent doing scenes from the book! And also, for the same reason, he detours from the storyline of the books. The books are thrilling and exciting enough without adding Aragorn falling off a cliff or Elrond being such an eggroll or evil Faramirs.

Elrond's an eggroll?

lol

I agree, FOTR was much better than TT. TT had way too many unnecessary detours from the book's story line.

Another year's gone by, and I was thinking once again, How can I take this losing hand and somehow win? Just give me One Good Year To get my feet back on the ground. I've been chasing grace; Grace ain't so easily found One bad hand can devil a man, chase him and carry him down. I've got to get out of here, just give me One Good Year!
