Didn't like seeing Gimli, Aragorn and Legolas beating on guards in Theoden's hall. That was totally unnecessary and a serious breach of etiquette. None of the four present would have been so disrespectful to Theoden.I didn't quite understand this change, and I would have preferred to see Wormtongue on his belly as Gandalf stood over him.That part was bad, and the book was much better and could have easily translated to film.Most of the other changes are tolerable. I completely understand the reasons. The way PJ did the movie, Pippin and Merry would have had nothing to do if they did not do what they did with the Ents.Let's face some truth here. TTT could easily be made into 2, possibly 3, long movies with all that was going on in the books. In TTT, there was no filler whatsoever like Tom Bombadil or the side-trip to the Barrow downs. It was non-stop action with so many integral characters that they could not possibly all be brought to life.Overall, it is the greatest fantasy film of all time. I certainly hope that it encourages movie companies to take some more chances with fantasy films. The technology nowadays definitely allows for magic and fantasy to be simulated in all its glorious forms.TTT wasn't perfect, but it was far from the trash you claim it to be Celebrim.</blockquote>
