Spoiler






What follows are spoilers both for the film and the story, so don’t read on if you don’t want to know.

I have a friend who works in publishing who’s seen an advance text for TROTK photo guide (sadly, all the photos themselves are embargoed). But it contains a rudimentary plot summary, which gives away some tantalising tidbits.

Okay, a few spoilers follow (minor, admittedly!).

1. Instead of a special arrow summoning Rohan, this is achieved when Pippin is sent by Gandalf to light the tower’s beacon; this is seen from afar by Aragorn.

2. Arwen’s role becomes slightly odd; she falls ‘ill’ (reasons are not given) but this is presumably the ‘dying of a broken heart’ that elves are prone to. Apparently only Sauron’s fall can reverse this fatal affliction, as she waits in Rivendell to see what Aragorn’s fate will be. (Well, I guess it keeps her in the picture!)

3. Elrond does indeed order Narsil reforged, and takes the sword to Aragorn personally, telling him how it can help him summon the Dead Army.

4. The Dead Army (as some have predicted correctly) does not seem to be involved in defeating the Corsairs – instead Aragorn takes them directly to Minas Tirith where they overrun the invaders and save the city. A logical simplification.

5. Eowyn/Dernhelm seems to run exactly as in the book, with the only difference being that Merry knows who s/he is all along, but keeps quiet!

6. It is Pippin not Gandalf who pushes Faramir off the pyre; Gandalf attempts to save Denethor but is too late.


All in all, the storyline seems to cleave extremely closely to the book, with perhaps the least chopping around of all the three films. So three cheers for that!


plus

Pippin's armour will be Faramir's from when he was a boy. Can't recall if that's in the book or not, but I don't think so. Adds to that 'bonding' thing, sure enough.





Nu stiu cat de spoiler e, pentru ca daca n-ai citit cartea e putin mai greu de urmarit...oricum e o adevarat frenezie in asteptarea ROTK...

Chiar, in Romania in ce luna apare...?

[Mirela]

In UE il lanseaza spre sfarsitul lui decembrie.Inchipuiti-va asadar sa vedeti LOTR dublat in franceza...io cre'ca o sa turbez, nu alta!

[Oribilul Mosh]

Iar eu in martie 2004 voi prezent la Hollywood Multiplex Bucuresti pentru a vedea ce mai fac Gandalf The White si tovarasii sai....cu voci originale , subtitrat in romana.

[BloodOnMoral]

Deutza mama, nu-ti fa probleme, de face rost de CD pana atunci. Noroc de cei ce stau in Bucuresti intr-adevar, chiar te invidiez, Moshule, dar se va gasi si o copie piratata pentru noi cei mai dezavantajati de soarta . Sunt curioasa care va fi abordarea, oricum, ce spui Dea, tu au vazut spoilerul ?

[A_Fire_Inside]

Pe 29 apare DVD-ul TTT! ;P

Inca ceva poze din ROTK:

Dublat in franceza? Groaznic...poate totusi nu-i lasa inima...Si Blood, poate ca asta e sigurul film pentru care as face tot posibilul sa nu-l iau piratat...

PS: nu sunt mama ta, Blood
