Went to see Return of the King last night. I think it was about as good as any movie of the books could be. I had my own quibbles, but I felt that some allowances had to be made for those who haven't read the books. In the end, I disagreed with this review by Jonathan V. Last on the Weekly Standard website. I particularly found the suggestion that there are homoerotic overtones in the relationship between Frodo and Samwise. The closes thing to perversion in these films was the hold the Ring had on all who possessed it.
