Where will The Two Towers movie end?

Mithrandir · 01-29-2002, 08:03 PM

It would be great if the movie of The Two Towers ended where it did in the book; Sam entering into Mordor Alone. But imagine if Peter Jackson decided to be completely evil and left the audience with Frodo being dragged away by Shelob and Sam running to save him. Or even worse, he might leave the end of the movie where Sam decides to continue without Frodo thinking that he is dead...I fear he might, like Tolkien, play with the viewer's mind

It better end with Sam falling unconcious in front of the door while Frodo is dragged away by the Orks! If it ended in another way....

I'll just say that I WILL BE MAD!

first of all, there was a considerably lengthy thread on exactly this subject not long ago.

secondly, i doubt PJ will do that. it's obvious that with the first movie he attempted to make some sense of closure at the end by venturing into the first chapter of TT. as discussed in the other thread, the ending of TT is a very 'natural' cliffhanger and PJ would be very unwise to alter it.

I agree - he should end it where the books end. But jackson had made stupid alterations in FOTR (Flight to the Ford). So who knows what he'll do - but I think he will keep it at least close to the book. I hope he doesn't screw the ending of Two Towers up.
