I still haven't forgiven PJ for sending Aragorn over a cliff!!
What exactly did that do for the plot?

It's supposed to kind of add to the romance theme. Because (i'm speculating) Arwen gives him the strength to ride to Helmsdeep.
Actually it's better than what they were going to do.

They were actually going to have Arwen come with the elves and fight alongside Aragorn. Now that wouldn't make much sense would it? I mean Eowyn is twice as much a fighter than Arwen. If there's actually anything to compare.

It seems like in the movies Arwen and Eowyn have switched roles, figurativly speaking. I mean Arwen rides through the woods with, what?, five ringwraiths behind her, and then we go to Eowyn, who's this girly young woman, who seems to have no courage really to speak of. I think one of the writers went insane. Even though I love the movies you just have to admit to that

I have just seen ROTK, I'm not going to give any of the plot away, but it was really good. Much better cut then TT. Still left a few holes making you wonder what's in the extended. I got the definate feeling that JP got to the end and thought 'Well if you haven't read the book by now, tough.'
Throughly enjoyed it, tip for anyone who hasn't seen it. Take some tissues with you.

On the Arwen at Helms deep front, if you look really hard you can just about see her arm as she help Legolas pull Aragorn and Gimili up the wall. In the extend addition you can actually see some shots of her fighting (in the extras bit). She looks good.

I believe that the romance between eowyn and faramir is indeed to hard to fit into the film, however, I believe PJ owes us a seven hour dvd-version!!!
