complaints on things not in the book?

personally i dont like when PJ adds things. he didnt write the book like in TTT when aragorn falls over the cliff it NEVER happens at all.

Spoiler:
celeborn never goes over the sea in the book

that was my husband told me, but he like's the movie...lol

i still like the movie but i think its just not cool to insert stuff u didnt create. all three r gr8 movies

argh........ PEOPLE IF YOU COULD HAVE done better then you should have made the damn movie........making a movie is VERY DIFFERENT from writing a book

PJ had to make scenes that flowed, even though some were good and some omissions were HORRIBLE.........the man and his crew made 3 great movies. U whiners out there should pipe down

the only change I didnt appreciate was the Frodo turning on Sam part.... Everything else I didn't mind too much.

I loved all three of the movies in the trilogy, but i didnt like the fact that they didnt explain what happened to Saruman at all! I mean come on, he was one of the cheif villains in the series, you can't leave stuff like that out.

i know that was in the book, but yea well

no it wasn't.

i agree with the frodo and sam and saruman

For that very reason, I am looking forward to the DVD EE.

I also want to know how Eowyn and Faramir got together 😄

can't blame PJ for leaving a few things out and putting stuff in. Making a movie is totally different from writing a book. Tolkien didn't write the LOTR for readers, but for his own enjoyment.

It’s true that in the books Celeborn remained in Middle-earth when Galadriel sailed into the West at the end of the Third Age. He remained for some time in Lórien, alone, and then retired to Rivendell, where Elrond's sons still dwelt. This is the last we hear of him. But Celeborn doesn’t do much in the movies, and we know nothing of him, so it’s a small change to make.

Jackson’s explained taking out Saruman of rotk. He’s said that if rotk started with Saruman it would be the END of TT and not the beginning of rotk. He’s in the extended DVD which will be four hours and 50 minuets long.
That’s 1½ hours more 😄

I hope he puts in the Houses of Healing, I know no scorning was ever shot (bummer). So Sarumon will have to die at Orthunk, hmmmm. Mabey its best he did leave out Sarumon's death.

the movie is awesome. no arguement.

Didn't Celeborn go to new-Lorien, in the south of old Mirkwood, at the end of the Third Age? I am pretty sure Lorien was abandoned.

Celeborn ditched his wife? I forgot that and I read the books.

Oh, that was Celeborn, was it?

PJ's explanation makes no sense, else he would have put the Saruman bits at the end of the TTT extended edition. THe statement has no logic to it anyway if you think about it. Let's face it, he cut it for time and pacing and no other reason.

There were definitely some things that I wanted to see in the movie that were left out, but I really appreciate that they didn't go making stuff up and changing things very much like in TT. Pretty much the only thing that was different in the plot was Frodo telling Sam to go home, and it was just about the saddest thing ever. So now I just have to wait about a year for the extended edition to see the Houses of Healing, but I can definitely deal with it.
