Tolkien vs. Jackson

I know a lot of people are posting this, but I thought I'd go ahead and mention it too, as I agree with it whole-heartedly. Even more than Aragorn making out with a horse, it was the thematic changes in Peter Jackson's films that were problematic to me.

"The age of man is over. The age of the orc has begun!" Ha-rumph.
