<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I think Erkenbrand was left out because Jackson doubted that the non-book audience would like the introduction of a new hero in The Towers that wasn't going to feature in The Return<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I think I should clarify my position a bit. I don't mind to much that Eomer was subed for Erkenbrand, since all that really did to me was delay me from seeing him in any clear action scenes until RotK . But I'd rather that PJ'd have given Theoden 2,ooo men, instead of exaggerating the odds (3oo/6oo against 1o,ooo? That's just a bit to much for me. ).
