Message: <blockquote data-quote="Talmun" data-source="post: 1907785" data-attributes="member: 17751">Might I suggest a slight change in point of view?Every scene in the movie is a 'Jackson scene'.  Scenes in the movie that you liked may translate what was on the page, but it's filtered through the mind of the director, just as the scenes in the book are filtered through your mind when you read it.  I understand you're saying you prefer sections of the film that draw more directly from the source material, but even in those, there must be additions made by the director, because Tolkien does not describe every minute detail, he (like all good writers) knows what to leave to the readers imagination.  This isn't to say I’m pleased with all the changes he made, but I understand why he made them.  I also know that, for reasons already mentioned, there will never be a complete page-to-screen filming of the Trilogy (or any other book, for that matter), so I'm willing to over look some perceived rough spots and enjoy one of the best movies ever made.Now to get the thread back on track:I’ll be picking the Deluxe set up today, can anyone tell me about the quality of the Minas Tirith mini?</blockquote>
