I kind of got film!Denethor from the start, but probably only because I'd read the books. If you hadn't, you wouldn't understand WHY he is the way he his, and wouldn't have any sympathy for him.
And WHY DIDN'T THEY PUT THE FULL ARMY OF THE DEAD SCENE IN THE THEATRICAL VERSION??? It explains SO MUCH about who Aragorn is, and his personal journey.
I know a lot of people didn't like the Eowyn/Nazgul scene and said she was weak. Well, smartyapple, how about YOU stand face to face with the Lord of the Nazgul and see how well YOU do?
I've seen him. Like I told you before, I used to hang with the guy who runs Kropserkel.com, who did a PERFECT replica of the Witch King costume. I performed with him a few times, and in costume, Scott is 6'10". Even though I knew that was my friend in costume, I was STILL scared. Because you can't SEE what's under that hood, and you project all your fears into it.
If he'd been "real", I'd just just been like "You know what? You can have him. He's mortally wounded anyway, go nuts. We good? Good. Catch ya' later, Witchy."
