and note not everything was given away
Spoiler:
I warned you about spoilers-I'm going deep now. Gandalf going nuts wth his staff and sword to protect Pippen. The charge of the Rohirrm agaist the standing army. Their second charge agaist the oliphaunts-suicidal stuff. Ok, onto the great stuff- The witch king knocking the hell out of Theoden. Everyone flees and the only one who stands their ground is Eowyn. It is one of the most powerful moments. The slow pan down the witchking's giant mace-killer stuff. I almost thought PJ screwed up when Frodo seemingly got out of Shelob's den alive. It is set up perfectly though. Shelobs sneak attack had people gasping, and Sams battle with the spider is awesome. Once again you will be cheering for Sam throughout. You will hear everyone talk about Legolas singlehandedly taking out an Oliphaunt and yes its quite a site to see. Gimli's line afterwards makes it even better. Denethor's descent in flames. A surprisingly moving moment is Gandalf's explanation of the Life after death to Pippen-and it happens in the middle of a huge battle. The return of Aragorn and the army of the dead cleaning up the walls of Minas Tirith. Sam deciding that he can't carry his master's burden but he can carry him up the slopes of mount doom. Gollum's joy and dancing when he finally gets the ring back- he truly dies a happy gollum. The destruction of the eye.
OH WOW
"Ring" in the new

The Hollywood Reporter: "The Lord of the Rings" director Peter Jackson is keen to shoot the trilogy's prequel, "The Hobbit," if the rights become available. Jackson spoke Monday at a news conference in Wellington, New Zealand, just before the premiere of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," which opens Dec. 17 in the United States. Jackson said that while he would like to shoot "The Hobbit," which was published 17 years before the "Rings" trilogy, he will be tied up for the next two years with his next project, "King Kong," and then would like to make a New Zealand-originated film. Jackson also hinted that the DVD for "Return of the King" could run for more than four hours.

what a miserable bugger, i mean he did nothing but complain
Nah, I think that the person on TORn that did that review had a fair enough point. Of course, I believe that PJ has done a fantastic job and I would NEVER expect him to stick EXACTLY to the book, but still, when you are as huge a fan as that guy seemed to be, I can understand his irritation...
All the same, WOW! I cannot wait!!!
