I can recall about three good things about TT/PJV. Arwen at Aragorn's tomb with Elrond's voiceover (Genuine Tolkien Text(tm); Wormtongue's observations about and to Eowyn (GTT(tm) again, even if 'borrowed'); and Theoden's arming scene (remarkably, GTT(tm) again).
I liked the scene showing Arwen looking down on the dead Aragorn, especially since Tolkien's own words are used in Elrond's voiceover. It's a good example of material from the Appendices being used to enrich the main story.
