Faramir was mischaracterized as well. Also, Pippin and Merry were made out to be clowns in the movie.
Jackson changed many characters in a way I found hard to swallow (His Gandalf the White made no sense), on the other hand I thought his Boromir was actually better than the book. The trilogy was certainly a great movie accomplishment. I hope he has respect for the source material when he does The Hobbit.
