I happened to see your nickname on the "who's online" bit on here, thought I'd drop a line...
I too was horrified when I saw The Two Towers and thought they'd got Faramir SO wrong, he just doesn't seem nice enough does he? But my dad came up with a consolation - maybe they're saving him up for the third film cause The Return of the King the book's quite short and doesn't have an amazing amount of character development in it. Soooo, hopefully they'll make him nicer in that film. If not I will be happy to come with you to New Zealand and help with the Peter Jackson lynching. We'll have to wait and see.....

yeah, I guess that could be...

But Boromir cloning is just downright wrong!

You should join FINEA (the Faramir Is Not Evil Association, dedicated to correct PJ's mistakes)


It desperately needs some members (i just made it a couple of days agosmiley - tongueout)


Wait, let me look up the address.....

But then in the book it does say how Faramir looks like Boromir ... hmmm... maybe they did it that way to emphasise their similarities, then when Faramir turns nice (hopefully) it'll show he's a better person. Or something ... does this sound like I'm making it up?

But then, it also specifically states they both have black hair...

I also hate they way they use the quote from the book in the wrong sense

"A chance for faramir, captian of Gondor to prove his worth" - or somethingh like that...

Good point about the black hair ... although I always imagined Boromir as short and quite stocky, then I re read "The Council of Elrond" and discovered that he was described as tall. But the damage was done...

I can't wait for the Faramir/Eowyn scenes...If P.J. messes those up i will seriously kill him in a most painfull way...have him tortured by my private liottle uruk-Hai force or somethingsmiley - tongueout

i guess I could tone it down a bit...maybe I'll tie him up in the middle of a long hallway, put (manages somehow to mention his name without puking) Orlando Bloom on one side and a couple of hundret sad obsessed females on the other and see what happens....or is that too cruel?

What have you got against Orlando Bloom? Or, should I say, "Orli" ... you're right, it's such a dumb name... a couple of my friends fancy him, I tried to dissuade them but would they listen? Noooo...

cinnamon_spider

yup. Aaah, I now seem to be talking to you on two conversations at once, very confusing...
I thought it was very cool, though did you think Elizabeth's dad and her fiancee should've been a bit more annoyed at her leaving with Will? Seemed a bit ... odd to me. Jack's the coolest.

cinnamon_spider

isn't Jack camp? as in, effeminate but in a very cool way? maybe I'm using the word wrongly. let's just leave the Jack description at excellently cool, that'd avoid confusion.
