The Movie/ Orc Races
Radagast Da Foo'

Has anyone heard if the ROTK will show Gimli, Legolas, and Aragorn's defeat of the Corsairs of Umbar? That would be really cool.

A question on the orcs:

First, here's what I know. Mordor has many orcs, and it says that it also has uruks (like the taskmaster of frodo and sam. Then Saruman breeds the Uruk-hai, which are half orcs half men. Are the uruks of Mordor and the Uruk-hai of Saruman the same thing? Did Sauron also breed these devils with men?

A thought: Orcs are corrupted elves. Uruks-hai are half orcs, half men. Substitution property: Uruk-hai are half corrupted elves, half men. So, if Elrond, who is half man half elf, were tortured into an orc, he would be an Uruk-hai.
