please see my post above. This was only said half in jest. I actually meant what I said in a roundabout way. I believe his main scriptwriters managed to talk him out of having the aragorn / sauron fight. In the end they reasoned with him that such a change to the book would be seen as sacriligeous, and unforgivable. In the end he saw sense.
It is a possibility, Essex. But if it was so important to scare us all by telling us we had to see Sauron & that was all there was to it, is it not so important to explain, at the very least to the non-book audience, why PJ decided to leave him out? Maybe he's going to say a bit about it in the RotK EE, but some of the explanations they give in the EE material leave me cringing & wishing I had the opportunity to ask them just a few questions .
