Unfotunately, movie Sam will not follow Frodo on the straight road as Frodo categorically states that the ship he sails on is the LAST ship from middle-earth to the undying lands.
Maybe, but Elrond also stated that Arwen was taking 'the last ship', & then another one showed up at the end . Perhaps we'll get lucky & they'll put it in after all, but I think you're probably right .

It makes sense that the Witch King breaks Gandalf's staff, given that he tells Gothmog before the battle that he will break the Wizard. It seems strange, though, that they left this line in the theatrical version once they decided to leave out the confrontation with Gandalf.
That was certainly something that struck me as strange. It's just a little wierd (to me) to not have the Witch King back up his statement, but I suppose that's PJ's affair :/.
