delayed hostile reactions to my rotk reviews... from people i don't know?

is scrupulously fair-minded treatment of fictional characters reasonably to be expected in the personal journals of all lotr fans? can any comment about a fictional character be intrinsically classy or un-? neither of these questions is really interesting enough to address at length. but i'm absolutely positive that it's silly to look for classiness in people's personal journals.

also, what constitutes 'bashing' of a fictional character? can it be achieved by disagreement with other readers over whether a particular scene in a movie was appropriately placed?

so many little essays and, er, clever one-liners are trickling in on my first review of rotk that i suspect some rosie-partisan somewhere has posted a link which others are following. if this is the case i hope they stop. i really didn't intend by my review to solicit the opinions of strangers.

eta: the link was posted here by monkeycrackmary.

all is explained.

turimel is a journal created by one of those swindled to record posts from other swindlees.

it's incredibly fascinating. would be unrelievedly funny except you've got to be appalled occasionally.
