The time has come to have a look at the villains of Peter Jacksons ‘The Return of the King’. In Tolkiens story you never really get to see the main badguy – Sauron. How has Jackson solved this when making his movie? Besides Sauron who are the villains and how are they portrayed?
I’m sure many will have a thing or two to say about Saruman. And what about Denethor? Is Denethor intended to be the main villain of this movie or maybe that’s Gollum? Join us in #thehalloffire as we debate the villains of ‘The Return of the King’.
