he'd been wanting to stage a big battle since he was 3. So there was one very satisfied 3 year old there.

Ha ha ha! Astute. But I do love PJ. Sorry he couldn't have done better by some of the characters, that's all.

I resonated (almost literally) to what you wrote about Frodo's weakened portrayal in ROTK and I thought a lot of your suggestions for how story points could have been accomplished were very good. I do think the EE of ROTK is an improvement overall (exceptions: Crossroads poor, because makes no sense with what went before and what will follow, besides making Frodo less, yet again; lopping of emissary's head by Aragorn - Morgoth behaviour), but agree that it could have done so much more. Still, I watch the EE when I watch it at home, as I do all the films.
