Re: Where are the Ents from?
Greetings, young Breakwind <img src=smile.gif ALT="

In the Silmarillion (Of Aule and Yavanna) it is written that when Yavanna realized that the coming children of Illuvatar would harm much of the rooted beings on earth, she was granted by Eru that her thought of watchers and care-takers for the rooted beings would come to life. These guardians were to be the Ents.
It is not known whether they found their wives, but I assume they were slain in the time the Dark Lord came to their lands and turned them into the Brown Lands.
I bet they will appear in the film, because it would not make much sense otherwise-Merry and Pippin would have been lost, and Isengard could not have been attacked, and before, Hornburg (Helm“s Deep) would have been lost.
