Changes that you weren't bothered by.

... at the end of ROTK where King Elessar bows before the four hobbits who helped save Middle-Earth from utter doom. At least I don't think that it's in the book.

It is not at the coronation, but on the field of Cormallen, and only to Sam and Frodo

And then to Sam's surprise and utter confusion he bowed his knee before them; and taking them by the hand, Frodo upon his right and Sam upon his left, he led them to the throne

But I don't mind in the least that they have left that chapter out and have it happen in Minas Tirith at the coronation.

What bothers me most, are the changed characters (like Frodo, Faramir, Denethor and Gandalf! (This would also have grieved Tolkien most! see letter 210)

However I've been reconciled to a few changes : at first it bothered me that Aragorn was portreyed so full of doubts, and not wanting to become king (in FotR EEand TTT) But then I understood that they probably did this to make it quite clear that he had no desire for power, (and therefore he could resist the Ring) so I can accept that change.
