So this is mainly for MY ali and reno, but i thought i’d put it on here for all to read….

From the Dec. 1, 2003 NEWSWEEK in the ‘Spoilers’ section on page 60:
”Saruman: [Peter] Jackson filmed a scene for “The Two Towers” in which Wormtongue kills the traitorous wizard, then bumped it to “Return of the King”—and then cut it because it felt like old business, which slowed the movie. A shame. Again, that’s what DVDs are for.
The Scouring of the Shire: One of the final sequences of the book, where the hobbits come home, find their hometown’s gone to pot, kick some butts and restore order. Jackson never liked this section of the book, and never even shot it, so don’t look for it on the DVD.”

i guess that answers our questions... hmmmm.... if that man wasn't a genius, i might want to kill him for leaving all that out... *sniff* all well.... at least i get to see it in...(drum roll please)....... 4 DAYS!!!!!!! :-D :-D WOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!
