I'm so sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but it was my understanding that the scouring of the Shire was to be left out of "The Return of the King", mainly for pacing purposes. Because of this, I think that scenes of the assault on lothlorien would be more likely to be seen.<P>PS: What I heard about the scouring of the Shire is by no means a carved in stone, for sure tip. It was only what I had read somewhere awhile back. I personally hope that it makes its way into the film, but definitely can see how it could mess up the pacing.
