I disagree I thought the ent draught was a good scene that should have been left in. Quickbeam as cool as he is would have been much harder to bring in seeing that he is so hasty compared to the other ents. Non readers would have got the impression that ents come in a variety of temperments and so forth whereas as readers know that only quickbeam was different in his hastiness. I think it would not have been as easy to bring him in as to have the much needed comic relief of Merry and Pippin and what happened with them.
