Nit-Pickers Guide to The Lord of the Rings
Good (and long) list of differences between the movies and books. Some things I noticed while watching the movies, and some I read now and say "oh yeah!" Good list, especially if you haven't read the books and want to know what was Hollywood and what was from the book. The 2 main things I didn't like in the movies was that Frodo never dropped the ring while climbing Caradhras, and therefore Borimor never picked it up. But, I somewhat understand trying to show the "power of the ring" or something. Even worse, is the role of Arwen in the movie, which was very much played up. That I don't agree with, but I realize it's Hollywood.
Anyways.. good list of nit-picks.
