there are both categories.
Some things are marginally better and incredibly expensive.
Other things, such as garden hose power snakes and these "audiophile crystals" are just pure scam.

can and want to are two very different things.

Wrong.
Those are income taxes for people with high salaries.

No billionaire earns the bulk of their money as taxable income. None of these countries tax billionaires the way the meme implies

Book gimli is an intelligent, articulate warrior poet.
Film gimli is a bumbling comedic relief.

For example when they enter Moria, in the film, most of the exposition in the film is given to Gandalf, with Gimli being reduced to gasping and awing.

"These are not holes," said Gimli. "This is the great realm and city of the Dwarrowdelf. And of old it was not darksome, but full of light and splendour, as is still remembered in our songs."

He rose and standing in the dark he began to chant in a deep voice, while the echoes ran away into the roof.

Followed by Gimli singing a song about its former splendour

At the tomb of Balin, instead of crying and moaning the whole scene:

"He is dead then," said Frodo. "I feared it was so." Gimli cast his hood over his face.

I like bombadil too! I just have hard time imagining the scene working in the film.

Tom bombadil and the scouring of the shire were just, logical omissions.

What they did to my boy Gimli though.. :'(
