Gandalf in Moria
Fredap

This is for everyone that keeps finding faults with the movie. We need to keep in mind that this is Peter Jackson's version of the Trilogy. Even if The Professor were stil alive, I doubt if he would have the skills or the interest to see this huge project done.

Jackson has done a very remarkable job and we as Tolkien diehards need to relax and enjoy the fact that PJ has done us a tremendous service by staying true to the main story line.

When Gandalf stood on the Bridge of Khaza-Dum and told the Balrog, " You shall not pass!", it was awesome and the scene, to me was perfect.

Let's all calm down and enjoy the next two movies.
