It *was* visually stunning, and I agree, the spirit was right-on. Seems that a lot of people say the same thing, "It's exactly what I imagined!"

By skipping some of the early chapters, the film didn't show just how awful their luck turned immediately after leaving Hobbiton. But yeah, it's a film... and there's only *so* much time to tell the story.

The thing with Bombadil is that he was the most supernatural character in the book. The fact that the ring had absolutely no power over him was something to ponder.
