Gollum=funny.

This replaces the law of Gravity as a universal constant.

It's a tricksey little hobbitses...
NOPE!
it's lies and keeps our precious from us!!
LEAVE ME ALONE!

The creative use of camera angles and CG facial expressions was TOP NOTCH in that segment of the film. I would gladly pay the price of another ticket just to see that one part again.

Also funny-
I have shared your names with my fellow ents and we have decided...*long pause* that you are not Orcs.

I did notice differences, especially the River thing...he never got seperated!

I think Smegal/Gollum needs a best actor award.

Awesome film.

I disagree though about the only alterations from the book being minor; there were some huuuuuge alterations, which actually took me by surprise, and caused me enough dismay to stop me enjoying the film as much as I should have. I shall have to see it again - then I'll know the changed bits, and I can concentrate on enjoying the film, rather than getting annoyed

Gollum/Smeagol ownz And so did Gandalf's fight with the Balrog

(note correct spelling)

Its been 10 years since I read LOTR, and I only got half way through Silmirillion (sp?) before a mate stole it.

But then I did spot some of the plot alterations so I guess they must be more major than I thought, but most of them were pointed out to me by a mate.
(most noticable is the movie ends quite short of the end of the 2nd book.)


Care to post your spotted plot alterations?
Ill be able to test my mate then.

The big changed thing that got me was the death of Aragorn's Elf friend...there were no major deaths in the second book....So I guess they just wrote that in to give the movie some (unneeded, in my opinion) Oomph. That's what you get for not wearing a helmet in battle. *phhht*

Yes, the Second movie ends a bit before the second book should (3rd and 4th books, if you want to be anal), but it also begins a bit after the beginning of book 2 (boos 3/4)

Minor changes?
If I remember correctly, it was one of Grishnaks (sp, I know) Urak-hai who attempted to eat the hobbits, not one of the lesser-goblins.

Upon meeting the Riders of Rohan, didn't Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas hide in the grasses? in the movie, they hide in a rocky outcrop.

There're more, but I'd have to see the movie again before I point them out.

Well I think there were only 3-4 elves at Helms deep, and about 20 rangers. Not a whole army of Elves with bows. (but they were very cool! so its an accepted change)


And Iv heard differnt ppl say differnt things about how many Ents attacked Isengard, and if any went to Helms deep.
And if the ents attacked Isengard on thier own, or with help from the Gandalf and co.

who cares about the changes, it still ruled all.

Gollum = definitely needs the best actor award.

helms deep = best action sequence easy.

oh and the oliphants and nazgul! how cool were they.

and did you all spot Peter Jacksons cameo in this one????

Jimmy, the more you post lately, the more I discover I'm soooo very much like you. First the Corona ownage, then the no musical talent. Then I find the same passion for violence/boobs/car chases in movies and the disgust for teh sci fi crap....

I thought he was one of the wild men who runs past Suromon after he winds them up?

I figured he would be either there or at helms deep, and looked closely the 2nd time I watched it.
I should be watching it a 3rd time before the end of the year, so Ill look again at helms deep.


darkness I dont really care about the changes, all were done perfectly, and do not affect the orginal story in anyway. Infact they show how great a film maker PJ really is.
