I remember PJ making a comment on the Extended Version DVD about how they only kept the scenes in there that actually effected the story and how it would end.<P>For instance, the left Tom Bombadil out because, I mean, he's a cool character and all, he just didn't have really anything to do with the plot line. It was just one of those cool coincidences that happened along the way. <P>I'm sure he will stick as close to the books as possible though, as we have seen in the past 2 movies. He's a good and loyal director. He'll make us proud.
