I could see why your friend who read the books had questions, there are lots of changes from book to movie. I didn't ask anyone why but I also had lots of questions about certain changes but that's a different topic...

Silmaril Trance

I saw ROTK with a couple of friends, and one of them who had never seen the series, thought it was stupid and a waste of time. But when they got to Pelenor Fields, my friend was literally in a trance. I even waved my hand in front of him. Nothing Happened. It was freaky. But cool to see someone effected by a awesome movie! Really funny moment!

The Eye

Three years ago, just after the release of FotR, I had a bunch of friends (girls) ask me what happened in the next two. I told them that Legolas dies and the gross-lizard thing that was alluded to would end up with the ring.

Alright, so one was marginly true, but I had fun with the Legolas thing.

I did see all three with newbies. But with RotK, I saw it with alot of newbies. About ten of my friends went, only four (including me) of which had read the books.

Ungood. It was sad. The other six kept asking us who those people were, why there were so many characters, why it was so long, why Legolas didn't have more screen time, ect.
