TTT extended Edition?
Will there be a TT extended edition or not? I'm not sure. There were some scenes that were left out/changed in the movie, but is there really enough to make an extended edition?

I think that TTT would benefit greatly from an extended edition. I think the Merry/Pippen/Treebeard storyline could use more scenes.

What will be interesting to see is if the Extended Editions will have a continuity of their own... for example, since FOTR Extended shows Gimli falling for Galadriel, perhaps TTT Extended will indeed have the line Smaug pointed out. Don't think that scene really needs it, though, the way it's already paced.
I agree that the Merry/Pippin storyline is the one that needs the most added time. But I think what the film of TTT really highlights is that they're actually barely in the thing, even in the book. It's just that their whole adventure with Treebeard takes longer in the book... it will be interesting to see if they drink Ent-draughts at all in the Extended TTT, and if they'll indeed be taller than Frodo and Sam in ROTK.

Extended Version: TTT
Peter Jackson said in a interview that the Ent-Draughts would be in the Extended Version. This would explain how Merry's forehead cut just magically disapeared in the movie.
Some scenes that I think should be in the Extended Version that were missing from theatrical version! 1.) More scenes showing Gandalf and Balrog fighting on the Endless Stairs to reach top of mountain instead of just suddenly appearing there. 2.) Frodo and Sam using Elven rope to climb down the cliff and that the rope magically let go at the top. (Sean Astin mention filming this in an interview!) 3.) I know they filmed a scene of Legolas collecting arrows from Fallen orcs at Amon Hen before the hunt started. 4.) Sam examining Southernor who fell of Oliphant more closely. (It felt like they clipped that scene in movie shorter.) 5.) A scene letting The Three Hunters know that Merry & Pippen are ok. Instead of them just suddenly forgetting about the hobbits they have been tracking for days. Those are just five off the top of my head. I will post again if I think of more. |

Besides if they took out Tom Bombadil, mauled Treebeard, and turned the Dead Marshes into a nuclear waste dump I dont think they would have any qualms about taking out characters (or mauling them) that aren't even IN the story. Dont feel bad. I wish they'd put at least ONE song into a movie. Stupid idiots. Cheers, Sam

It actually sort of makes sence... ROTK has all the appendices at the back of it, so while the book is physically the same size as the FOTR book it's a much shorter story. Moving Shelob to ROTK will make them all roughly equal in length. |
