You might check out Andrew Rilstone's excellent rants page (http://www.aslan.demon.co.uk/ttt-app...htm#appendix_e), from which I excerpt the following:
___________________________

Based on Fellowship of the Ring I made the following predictions about Two Towers.

1: Arwen would fight at Helms Deep; she would bring the sword that was broken and is reforged to Aragorn.

2: Arwen would stop off at Lothlorien to have a chat with Galadriel and possibly bumping into Gandalf while he was being re-clothed in white.

3: Saruman would be unequivocally dead by the end of the movie to forestall any need for shire-scouring in Return of the King.

Since this was so successful let me tell you what I think will happen in part 3.

1: Arwen will not appear at Pelanor Fields. She is already on her way to the Grey Havens. Someone else—quite likely Elrond—will bring the sword to Strider. (I can't believe that they would have shown the shards of Narsil in Fellowship if it weren't going to be reforged sooner or later.)

2: The Paths of the Dead will be turned into a big battle with zombies.

3: Sauron will resume his physical form ride out from the Dark Tower and personally take part in the final battle. Either he will replace the Witch King at Pelanor fields, to be challenged by Gandalf and deaded by Merry (which I would deplore); or he will replace the Mouth of Sauron at the gates of Mordor (which wouldn't be that bad an idea.).

4: Denethor will be suffering from the same demonic possession as Theoden and Gandalf will try (and fail) to exorcise him. When he says 'let us all burn, burn, burn' he will overact terribly.

5: When Gollum lops off Frodo's finger there will be flashbacks to Isildur castrating Sauron at the Last Alliance.

5: Frodo will not return to the shire. After the last battle everyone will ride to the Grey Havens to wave bye-bye to the last ship. Arwen will be lingering on the shore. Elrond will be telling her that if she doesn't go she will regret it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but some day. Just before the boat departs Aragorn will come over the horizon, wearing his crown and therefore in silhouette. Arwen will leap out of the boat and run to him. Elrond will see that there is nothing he can do and give Arwen's seat on the boat to Frodo. The boats will sail. Sam will go back to the Shire alone. It will be closing time at the Green Dragon. Rosie will be waiting for him. He will go in and order a drink. 'Well I'm back' he will say uncertainly.

i wouldnt bother. i woudl instead enjoy the films for what they are and enjoy the book for what they are and not become another sad fanboy who cant accept the nature of the medium of films and the meaning of the word adaptation.

i read his articles about the star wars movie and i pity such people that they cant enjoy such a well made piece of work and are forced to listen to their inner dialogue destroying their sense of wodner and disbelief. its pathetic.

Now that is weird. Unless it's just meant to be silly, they ought to spend their time coming up with something a little more convincing to fool all the idiots who believe everything they hear on the internet.

It is meant to be silly. bbspot.com is a humor website.

Thank you once more for adding so much to this discussion about humorous LotR topics. No such thread would be complete without one of your hostile, critical, badly-typed and poorly-punctuated rants.

Far be it from anyone else to be able to enjoy some LotR-related humor.

How about a paraphrase:

i woudl instead enjoy the game for what it is and not become another sad fanboy who cant accept the nature of the medium of games and the meaning of the word adaptation.

And were you trying to be ironic when you do little else on these boards but rail about Decipher's adaptation?

Sad fanboy indeed....

A recently leaked trailer for The Return of the King has Tolkien fans outraged over the apparent addition of a new character - Jar-Jaromir. The scene depicted in the trailer shows Jar-Jaromir shouting, "Gondora gonna fallsa";
he then trips over a corpse and knocks down a couple of Uruk-hai.

That's just so wrong....nearly snarfed my liquid sleep all over my monitor!!

Okay! BBSpot owe me a new keyboard!!!

I was eating my breakfast cereal when I started reading the Jar-Jaromir thing, and snorted milk out of my nose and all over the keyboard!!!

God, that is just so WRONG!!!
