What part from the book did you miss from the movie?
I personally missed Tom Bombadil and the barrowdowns. Though I think they'd have probably had to make it seem like Tom wasn't on drugs seeming as he was a hippie type character. He always seemed like he was on drugs as well. But still I'd have loved to see Tom Bombadils part and the Barrowdowns.

The Elves are on drugs anyway.  Personally I missed the Scouring of The Shire, but I understand why it was left out. Pity though.  |

No elves have alcohol issues  Bombadil was so on drugs xD And I agree, something else that would have been brillant to see - but I guess things woulda been getting on to be too adult or just too long |

I miss the REAL Prancing Pony. Butterbur was awesome in the movies - a perfect match from the books. But the whole atmosphere was all wrong. =( I would really have loved for it to be more true to the books. I understand they had to cut some stuff out and stuff, but yeah...

I agree - Strider wasn't sinister enough and it wasn't party enough xD. The Prancing Pony in the books gave me a feeling of a rowdy olden pub with the waitresses being flirted with etc.

Moutheh - Celeborn is drugged. Nobody talks like that otherwise. If anyone's interested the real reason the Scouring wasn't in is it doesn't work in film to start the story up again at that point. Pity though. |

Yeah, they already had a zillion endings, it would've been a killer to start it back up. |
