Oh my...

[Rictor]

And now the million dollar question:

The Scouring of the Shire, yes or no?

[Aggressor_Squad]

na i heard they never even filmed that part

[Rictor]

damn! 50 extra minutes would be more than enough to cover that and do it justice and still have lots of time of the other stuff.

the Mouth of Sauron looks awesome though.

[Liberator]

The thing about the Scouring is that the way the movie portrayed it, The Shire was never even really aware that anything was going on out in the world of men.  So tossing The Scouring would require a second Extended Version of the other 2 films and all the actors involved to come back and film it, all to make the fans happy.   of the extra stuff they already had filmed and it was simply a matter of editing and some of it was effects shots so it could be done any time.

[Rictor]

Well, they weren't. But then Saruman comes along and brings the world to them. The movies stay true to the Shire in that respect, and I don't think it would have been out of line with the rest of the movies.

[Aggressor_Squad]

another positive is that we will see Gondor ACTUALLY KILLING some Orcs now

[Corsair]

*is really excited*
That looks so good!!!!!!!!

[Mongoose]

The Scouring wouldn't work in cinematic format anyway; it's too anti-climatic to the main story.  As an avid fan of the trilogy for several years, even though I would like to see the films remain as true to the books as possible, I have to admit that there are certain things that just don't work well in movie form.

As for that trailer...

*Waiting for my pre-order to come in*

It must be soon now....?

I heard they did; it was the ending of the Two Towers, but got cut and should have been moved to the intro of ROTK, but again gut cut from that one.

What's the UK release for this?  Might put it on me xmas list.

[mitac]

That thing's pre-ordered for quite a few weeks now. Just 10 more days to wait.

If they would just fix the Army of the Dead fiasco....

heh no kidding i'd personally rather see 2000 Gondorians charge in with the trio rather then some green pile of crap coming in deux ex machina style....

[Fergus]

Personally I hope they put the (in my view) the true climactic moment when Saruman and Gandalf.  Now theres a George Bush v (Insert goodie/baddie depending on views)esque fight I would like to see.  Damn I can't get away from politics.  Still looks good

[Unknown Target]

Um....I'm at school, I can't see the clip, what's all this about?

I was  when I saw they green swirlies wrap all around.  I can't believe they did that since it makes it seem like such a cheap solution to the problem =/
