Message: <blockquote data-quote="jdavis" data-source="post: 570183" data-attributes="member: 8704">I was actually scared to post to the thread, some of the attacks were just vicious. I think some people (on both sides) need to realize that this is just a movie. many peoples comments here were just uncalled for regardless of what they were repling to, or how uncalled for the first statement was. Peter Jackson spent years on this movie, heck New Line put the company up to make it, nobody tried to make a bad movie or destroy Tolkien's work, but every point that was brought up to illustrate how bad the movie was had merit. heck most of the bad points were agreed on, but that didn't stop people from roasting anybody who didn't like the movie. Both sides went over the top and it just got silly, it was just a movie. All that aside I do have one bone to pick with changes that were made (most of the changes didn't bother me as changes, they just bothered me in general). Since when did Elrond become king of the elves? I have heard that said at the theater and have read it in other places (I'm trying to remember where, I'll post a link when/if I find it). The silly elf telepathy scene!? between Galadriel and Elrond is worded to sound like she is asking what to do from her superior, and the elves showing up at Helm's Deep and saying Elrond sent them reinforces that. Maybe I am worng and it is just a confusing scene, I let a friend have it for refering to Elrond as the Elf King guy, he hadn't read the books, he got that from the movie. It's not a big thing but it annoyed me.</blockquote>
