Strider Two Towers with or without Ents?

Dude should not have made the movies without putting the ents in. In the preview and in the behind the scenes of the Two Towers, Ents werent even mentioned nor was the Battle of Isengard. Jackson is a fool if he didnt put Treebeard in.

Just my thoughts.

I think giving away what the ents looked like would be to much of a giveaway. I also heard somewhere that they would be in it and who was doing the voice of treebeard.

Did you not see the ent in the TTT trailer? Oh well, I guess it *was* pretty hard to see on the trailer I downloaded...

BoP, where is this Ent in the trailer? I've seen the trailer a couple of times, but I haven't seen any Ents.

It was in the first TTT trailer that I downloaded, so the one that previewed at the end of FOTR, and it was towards the end, when Merry & Pippin were leaning on a tree, and you *just* caught a glimpse of an eye blinking out from the tree.

John Rhys-Davies (Gimli) is doing the voice of Treebeard. The Ents are not in the official trailer at the LOTR movie site, but are in the one that was shown at the end of the FOTR. Don't worry, the Ents are in, worry about Arwen.

SPOILERS: Pippin and Treebeard Pictures

According to spoiler sources the Ents will be in The Two Towers, including Treebeard. They will attack Isengard. There are many reports of the actors spending days filming these scenes.

Heres the whole sequence between Pippin and Treebeard. The quality of the pictures are poor but you can still see Treebeards eyes and Pippin's reaction when he realizes what he sees.

And, here it's a little bit clearer.

And, the figurine:

Thanks BoP and Kalimac. The winking-eye-scene looks pretty funny.

It would be a great mistake if he would both - Tom Bombadil AND Treebeard. I don´t think, he made this mistake twice.

I'm pretty sure they're in. There is that quick shot of Treebeard in the official trailer. And I've seen a shot in another commercial of some one testing a big suit that can't be anything else but an ent. ...that is I hope.

People, there is no question that the ents are in the movie. I am not guessing or conjecturing. It's a fact. Don't worry, be happy! The ents are in!

WOW! Neato! Treebeard looks really neat!

I love the "double-take" which Pippin makes as he is holding onto Treebeard's nose......and the scene at the very end of the Two Towers clip in the theaters showed the Ents attacking Isengard.....

I couldn't download the trailer, but I do know that the Ents are in TTT. John Rhys-Davis is doing treebeard (u guys r right) and the last I heard his costume was getting touch ups. I can't wait till TTT. Only 4 months!

I thought that Treebeard was completely computer generated, but they had some models of him done.
