Or was it epic-er?

It contains fewer heinous story changes

Paths of the Dead, no Entmoot, Sam in Minas Ithil, Scouring of the Shire

Why do you mention the Scouring of the Shire when it was cut?

byujacob

Never said it was movie-only anywhere. I prefer the books.

You're right. My bad. I assumed since people saw me linking the previous thread

Agree with GuitarGuy. Are you referring to the eagles specifically?

No I'm referring to the Battle at Pelennor Fields and the Dead Men of Dunharrow.

byujacob

I can agree with that.

flavordave

No, no, no, no, no

CoopDizz

I'll agree to disagree with you there.

From a storytelling standpoint, it's better to have contrasts and foils

CoopDizz

3/30/15 3:30pm

Calm down. No one said anything about knowing more than anyone else.

I'm fine. When you're an author making a general statement about writing . . .

CoopDizz

That's fair enough, but I am not a film maker, and I was referring to the film

byujacob

'preciate the clarification

Yeah I don't like how Faramir tries to take them to Gondor. It cracks me up when

Would've been nice to have a scene with Tauriel and Fili/Kili? holding hands and

Because the TT was a bridge movie. A very good one, but still a bridge.

3/30/15 4:31pm

Interesting thoughts.

Yeah, but Empire Strikes Back.

I don't know...but I liked RotK the best. Maybe had more emotions I could relate
