I think that the main problem is that the non-book readers can't enjoy it as much when everything is crammed. I had to explain quite a bit of the ending to my mother because of this, like what happened to Arwen and Aragorn and that Frodo went into the West, ect. The first question she asked me when we got out of the theater was, "So did the King marry the Elf?" Soon followed by, "Why did Frodo have to get on the boat?" I enjoyed the movie for I understood what was happening because of the books but my mom was kind of confused.
