[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0="NAHTMMM"]So where [iost_uid0]was[/iost_uid0] Tom in the movies, anyway? :S [/quoteost_uid0]
Well that's obvious. They went a different way in the film than the book (interestly enough, on consultation with the map of Middle Earth, the route taken in the film to get to Rivendell doesn't contradict the books. They just went a different way). This meant that they didn't go through the forest, so didn't get lost, and didn't meet Tom Bombadil.

I completely agree with Nan about the science in The Core being horrid.

[quoteost_uid0]The *second* movie, however...oy. It seems like PJ is remaking the book in his image. It's one thing to cut things out, another to put things in. I barely recognised that movie. I didn't like that way Gimli was made out to be comic relief.[/quoteost_uid0]

I'm with you on the Gimli bit. However, while I won't support or attack PJ's changes, as a film, it is still great. Only when comparing it to the book can you find problems with it.[/colorost_uid0]
