Favourtie Scenes
G

Now that the realease of the extended version of ROTK has been released and we have the opportunity to view the three movies in their entirety, what scenes do you all consider to be you favourites and least favourites?

My top moment has to be the added scene in TTT when Merry and Pippin discover Saruman's secret pantry and my least favourite (and I'm sure this will be controversial) is Helm's Deep, especially Haldir's death (WHY????).

Also, is there anything that still hasn't been included that you wish had? I miss the Scouring of The Shire and Glorfindel but above all wish more time had been spent developing the relationship between Theoden and Merry. The second I saw that Pippin was awake when Theoden arrived at Isengard I knew this was going to be skipped and it really disappointed me.

Anyway, what do you all think?

Oh, and congratulations to Brett C. And I agree about Gandalf's staff being broken, really shouldn't have happened but you can see why they did it for the movie.
