Treebeard?
Chris1

Hey, I have been reviewing this forum looking for any reference to Treebeard. I realize that he doesn't show up in the first book, but I noticed that Tom Bombadil was not included in the first film. I would have like to see him included, but certainly can see cutting him as apposed to something else more crutial to the overall story. Anyway, the concern I have is that Treebeard will be similarly cut from the next movie. In the two trailers I have seen I did not see any reference to Treebeard or the Ents. Unlike Tom, they are a major part of the story.

Does anybody have any thoughts or inside information on this?
