I've read from a reliable source, tolkienonline.com, that Eomer doesn't cry over Eowyn or Theoden. The trailer shows Eomer crying over an older man with shoulder length hair, and I have read that is GAMLING. I sure as heck hope that it's not Gamling, if it is I might go mad.
That sounds a little strange O_o. I mean, Gamling is the captain & all, but for Eomer to wail over the loss of him? I still think it'll probably be Theoden or Eowyn, since someone has got to find them I wouldn't be suprised if it's Eomer. Maybe I'm just saying that because I'd rather believe it than believe the Gamling story, though .

I think it is more likely that Eomer will be crying over Eowyn due to it was in the book. I don't remember if he actually wept over her, but he was the one to find her. (I think)

Sorry about posting back to back, but I had a thought...

What about running time? How much time do you think it would take to show the extended scenes on-screen?

Definitely Bill! That'd be so sweet! ^_^


I saw a clip of them filming the scene where Sam has to throw his pots away.... I hope that's in the EE!

Houses of Healing too of course, and maybe Beregond?

Beregond or no

I doubt Beregond will be in the EE. I hope that he is I would like to see him in the EE. However, if he is in the EE, he won't be stepped on by a troll like he was in the book. The movie has Aragorn getting stepped on by a troll.

I expect that PJ and crew will add about 5 more endings on to the movies. Maybe with the extended wedding scene and the reuinion with Bill the Pony, elaborating more on why Frodo left to go to the Grey Havens.

I hope to see the House of Healing and hopefully a lot more fighting. I just get an adrenaline rush before During Theodens speach.

There is a large possibility that Denethor will have more of a role. He sort of mentions the palantir indirectly when he knows of Aragorn and his posse. Also, there is a part in the movies that doesnt make sense. When Pippin lights the towers, there is a quick shot of Denethor peeking out from some window. The movie led us to believe that the lighting of the towers happens right after they meet up with Denethor. But if that is the case, since there were no windows in the throne room, then there must be another scene with him probably looking into the palantir. This would also explain why he is going insane, more so than just his Son "dying"

Just my few cents. Man its good to be back on the Downs
