Additions that didn't help ROTK - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Did anyone else notice the excessive jokes about Sam's weight? I mean, it was kind of funny in TTT when Gollum said, "Stupid, fat hobbit!" and Sam gives him this look, but it got old very quickly in ROTK... and people were still chuckling when Gollum said, "the fat one" for the tenth time.<P>Yeah, stickifinger, it would have been so much better if they had done the pyre scene as it was in the book: the doors close and you hear Denethor screaming. It would have taken less time, too, and weren't they always cutting corners to keep the movie length down?
