How do you transport that vast treasure hoard? How do you keep others from robbing it from you?So, that in itself doesn't make the way they split up the story for the movies a bad thing. My main complaint about the movies is that they tried to turn it into "Lord of the Rings II" rather than treating it as the quite different kind of story that it is.</blockquote>
