[The Saucepan Man]

After my experience with TTT, I would say that forewarned is definately forearmed. I enjoyed the film first time round, but was somewhat preoccupied with the changes and wondering which favourite moments would be in and which would be out. And that did slightly impair my enjoyment. My enjoyment of the film was significantly greater on my second viewing when I could just relax and take it in. <P>So I have been looking at all of the spoilers that I can find. Being aware of the changes that have been made (some of which surprised me) gives me a chance to come to terms with them before I see the film next Thursday.<P>And I do not think that it will really spoil the experience. Although I pretty much know the storyline for the film and what changes have been made, and despite having seen many images from the film, everything that I have read convinces me that I will still be delighted and overawed by the sheer impact of it when I see it on the screen. With a film such as this promises to be, it seems to me that all the spoilers in the world will not spoil that.<P>Having said that, I was slightly miffed that Shelob featured in the main trailer (albeit briefly). I had been hoping that her image would not be released before the film is released. It seems to me that it is the King of the Dead and the Grey Havens that New Line is holding back. I have seen no images of either.
