Maybe the "Shelob" bit. It could be really great if done well, but let's hope it doesn't turn into a bunch of clunky, going-for-the-cheap-scare
anticipatingwith a big silly spider-monster running around and none of the serious feeling of evil and revulsion that belongs in it. No "Arachnid Park", please!Ted Sallis
Actually, this is a part I can envision quite well and I am really
seeing it, I think it will be one of the scariest parts of the trilogy.This
will be the scene that everyone just shudders over! I wonder if Jacksonwill be
brazen enough to leave the audience thinking that Frodo has been killed by Shelob at the end of TT, those who have not read the books that is. Surewould
make for a nice cliffhanger! Very Empire Strikes Back.I had colleagues at work (who had not read the book) say that they were really sad when Gandalf died, as they thought he was a main character, and would have liked to have seen him in the second and third movies.
