Re: CHAT: Best/Worst/Missing Scenes in LotR

I thought the movie was a very mixed bag.

A lot of the really important things got left out. The reforging of Narsil,
et al. And some really unneeded changes were made. There were no skeletons
at the gates of Moria, Arwen, et al. The Mirror in Lothlorien was totally
screwed up and leads me to believe they're gonna leave out the Scouring of
the Shire.

On the positive side: the casting was pretty good overall. (Agent Smith made
a suprisingly good Elrond.) And the sets were very good. And the languages
were pretty good. And the orcs were good. And the action sequences were very
good.

So... it's a mixed bag.
