Just to add support to Estel, I too have read about scenes of Argorn fighting. I've also read an interview with Jackson where he was asked about the rumour and he said that the movie is still being edited (this was last June) and that he hasn't decided how Sauron is being presented, but is leaning closer to what was in the book (though he likely would have said that regardless of what the reality of the situation was).<P>H.C.<P>Edited to add: Found <A HREF="http://www.theonering.net/perl/newsview/2/1052497889" TARGET=_blank>this</A>.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I have a friend who told me about Return of the King, first thing, Sauron will be standing off against Aragorn in hand to hand combat. <P>Men of Gondor surround them both and Legolas shouts "Aragorn!" as a warning, then Aragorn with Anduril in hand rushes the Dark Lord who looked like he was in different armor than when we saw him in the prologue. It is not an even fight and Aragorn is nearly knocked to death as the countdown to the destruction of the ring begins. I guess the goal is to make the audience wonder if the ring will be destroyed before Aragorn is smeared all over Mordor! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>It's from OneRing last May.
