Got to disagree. My best friend, who loves the films but hasn't read the Books, told me after that when the screen faded after Mount Doom he was thinking "Please don't let it end now" - and quite right too...it would have been compeltely antilclimatic...too much of an "oh...so it's ended..." feeling. Plus we need to see how the charatcers are afected by this. Finally, naming a film "The Return of the King" is a stupid idea if he doesn't become King, whihc happens after Mount Doom (oh, and Arwen's character would be totally redundant too without a marriage)!
