It's a significant part of the books and the hobbits returning home like nothing happened is pretty different, but then the movie would be like 5 hours long. Leaving out the Scouring actually makes that problem worse. If RotK feels too long it's because it has a very, very long ending after the quest succeeds, with no drama to break it up. Including the Scouring could have fixed that despite actually making the film longer. --- Re-open board 261. <cite>Thanatos_the_Great posted [p:986017887] in I like the...
