Re: Man, I sure didn't expect Frodo to ... **POSSIBLE SPOILERS**
The choice to cut out Saruman and the scouring of the shire was warranted. I thought it was a good choice. But because of that, I'd have expected more battle scenes and less ending!

Great movie, but I could've done with more and longer visuals... The final battle at the black gate was also a little weak. I was expecting that to be pretty huge too. Legolas' battle with the one oliphaunt was very cool, but I get frustrated when he says blatantly obvious lines [in all the movies] and then just stops there. Gimli amuses me much more.

My favorite event: Gandalf smacking down Denethor with his staff.

I wonder... if they toned dow the rendering quality and resolution a bit so that it could be rendered in real-time, what would WETA charge for people to play 'Battle of Minas Tirith'?
