They only needed to include those three magical chapters with the Old Forest, Tom Bombadillo and The Barrow-Downs and it would have been spot on as far as films can ever be!
The Old Forest & so on is one of my favourite pieces of Tolkien's writing as a whole - but I'm glad they didn't film that bit. Something tells me it would have been a disaster. I couldn't see them handling it very well - and I'm one of those people who bow before PJ's talent.
