It's impossible to guess how I would have worked to make the story fit the movie screen.What I do know is what suggestions I would have about changes in the script of PJ et. al.I would have no further suggestions for the FOTR script, since it was well done, and I was surprised and very impressed.In the TTT script I would cut all that irrelevant, sentimental Arwen cr*p and most of the 360 degrees landscape views, since those scenes add nothing to the story. Those 30-45 minutes saved would have been better spent on 1. the quarreling between the different Orc tribes in the gang carrying Merry and Pippin to Isengard and 2. the Ents, the way their discussion and actions are portrayed in the original story, and the Huorns.And, of course I would replace Boromir no. 2 with the real Faramir.Anders
