ninja91 has just left Hobbiton.
It may also be possible that giants were scrapped, as they are often seens as of human form and therefore possibly aligned good rather than evil. Where then would they fit into Middle-Earth? I think that Tolkien's desire to include giants or a giant race, aside from Ents, were his addition of trolls to the legions of the Dark Lord, not only including beasts of size but making the Enemy army even more terrifying.
