<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> But it really annoys me when people say that "oh, the Palantír and Pippin isn't essential so it will probably be left out." It's definitely essential to Pippin, perhaps the biggest turning point in his life. And Pippin is important to the plot. So there.<BR><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I totally get your point, Diamond, and I am by no means saying that it isn't a huge thing for Pippin and for the whole story as well. And that I wouldn't be sad if it was left out. But as you yourself pointed out, they have a million other ways to get Pip to Minas Tirith, and even show the change and new found maturity in him. <P>When I said that it isn't vital to the story, I meant just that: it is an important part of the story, but they <I>can</I> still make a RotK-movie without it. And hopefully a good movie.<P>But your guess is as good a mine, and they might jus as well include it. Then - for once - I would be happy to be wrong...
