Encaitare is right...non-book fans probably would not have enjoyed a longer movie than 3.5 hours. And, the movies were meant to make money for the studio, so it wouldnt really pay to cater to just hard-core Tolkien fans. Not that I would have been averse to that scene being in there....
Wha bugged me most was that the Houses of Healing was left out, but I heard that it was going to be in the Extended version, so I guess that's OK.
