Yep, many J.R.R. Tolkien book reading nuts of course would be dissapointed by the films because of so much scenes cut from the books. So quit your complaining. All movies based on books do that. I've read all three books before I even seen the movies, I've read the books many times. And I still love the movies. It's not just a trilogy, it's all just one whole movie.
OK, seriously, you're stupid. First off, for you to say that you know for fact that Peter Jackson made an outrageously long ending because after 10 hours (which is wrong, btw) of LoTR, he wanted a refreshing ending? Bullshit.

For you to say that all 3 movies is only 10 hours is way off. With the Directors Cut of each film (what they actually filmed), there is about 12 to 13 hours of movie. I went to a showing of all 3 films right after eachother, and with intermission between them it lasted 14 and a half hours.

Then, for you to say that I'm bitching about cut scenes, you're half right. If it wasn't a scene that was really important (hence I had nothing to complain about in FoTR and TTT), it wouldn't be important. If you read the books, it was easier for you to understand these things. My brother has never once read the books, but watched all 3 movies. There were things he still didn't understand about it at the end, such as how people just decided to bow to Aragorn, what was with Eowyn and Faramir, etc. And no, if you've ever been to a movie that was made after a book, they don't cut important plotlines out. Thats stupid. I love the movies also, but I'm also going to critisize it if they cut out important plot moments, which they did.

Now please, do us all a favor and go back to where you came from and never, ever come back.
