I agree with you completely. This is what I say to people. It's not the changes that they had to make to the story to fit the change in medium, it's the complete character rape that they committed, which was in no way necessary, and ruined the story. Faramir represented the best of Gondor, he was the epitome of what they should be. Denethor was the pride of Gondor corrupted by itself, and Boromir was the pride of Gondor corrupted by an outside influence. Aaaand, I'll shut up now, otherwise we'll be here all day talking LOTR.
