<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> It was my impression she did it so that Theodred would not catch her defying his orders, not because she was a woman. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>I'm very amused at the moment. Having Éowyn and the other women fight would have taken everything away from Éowyn's desperation in RotK. It wouldn't make any sense for her to do all that complaining about being in a cage if we saw her get to break free of her cage in the previous movie. This was established in the Warg battle when she had to lead the women away instead of fight against them with the men. It would have been too much too soon.As an aside, I don't really think the spoiler warnings are nessecary, since this is a Books oriented site.
