Topic	Unpopular opinion - I hated Hugo Weaving as Elrond
Southernfatman 01/30/23 1:43:50 PM #19:	ArchNemo posted... I love anything to do with Middle-Earth but let's face it, the LOTR movies were popular because of the changes, not in spite of them. A one to one adaptation of LOTR would not have been even marginally as popular of a trilogy. I don't think a 1:1 adaptation would be super great as movies either (maybe a miniseries if anything), but I wouldn't go so far as to say it being changed was what made it successful. Outside of the exclusion of a couple of certain chapters, most of the changes are relatively minor. Just saying that certain characterization of Aragorn didn't make or break the movie. --- http://i.imgur.com/hslUvRN.jpg When I sin I sin real good. <cite>Southernfatman posted [p:971208989] in Unpopular ...
