(WARNING: THIS POST CONTAINS SCENES THAT WERE NOT IN THE MOVIE, BUT WERE IN THE BOOK. HOWEVER, IT MAY CONTAIN PLOT SPOILERS! So, if you haven't read the book and you're planning on seeing it and don't want to know anything, then don't read my post!)The movie was incredible! Best movie
EVER!!! However, for those who thought the movie was too short, it actually should have been longer and I wish it was. If you haven't read the book here are a few things that were missing from it.: At the end of ROTK there is a whole chapter in the book titled "The Scouring of the Shire" where the Hobbits go back and find the Shire a mess. They then discover that Saruman and Wormtongue, after being banished from Isengard, had taken over the Shire and corrupted many of the hobbits there. With the help of "the heroes" the Hobbits rally up against Saruman and Wormtongue then Wormtongue ends up killing Saruman. Wormtongue is then promptly killed by Hobbits. From what I have heard, they didn't even film "The Scouring" so it won't even be in the extended DVD. I'm bummed about that because I was looking forward to seeing that entire chapter on screen, but I thought the movie was absolutely awesome anyway! There is also a whole bunch of stuff that goes on between Faramir and Eowyn which results in them falling in love and getting married, which would have been cool to put in, but not absolutely necessary. If anyone noticed it, that's why you see them standing together, smiling at each other, in that ceremony at the end. Like I said, I thought the movie was incredible, but as a fan of the book I do wish they would not have left a lot of this out.
I saw it tonight.... *speechless*
A beautiful ending to a GREAT epic!
Quick note however... In pt3 when the soldiers ride out from the city on the suicide run, they pass by some children, the human child in the foreground is the same totally cute hobbit kid in pt1 that sits there while Bilbo reads the story. The kid is all 8O and is the cutest thing!
I think that is Peter Jackson's little kid (according to a documentary I saw).
She's also in The Two Towers with all of the women and children in the caves at Helm's Deep. I thought that was pretty screwy that you see the same kid in different roles in all three movies, but she is cute as a button! :razz: lol! I suppose that's why she's so noticeable.
