@mpjgregoire@cosocial.ca Oh I think it would have looked very good but was very much at odds with the book. It's kind of like I have big issues with the portrayal of Faramir and his rangers in the movies. I think on their own they are good story but it is a story very different in tone and portrayal to what Tolkien intended.

@Chigaze@mstdn.ca My favourite scene in the movies is the lighting of the beacons. It's in the books, sort of, but it's a minor element in the plot. Movies are different from books, and some things that work well in one medium don't work in the other. We should generally judge the creations on their own merits.
