I agree. The books, nothing at all. The Movies...many things.

Let's see, the movie DEFINITLY needs changing. I guess starting with the whole no barrow wights thing! I mean that's one of the coolest parts in FOTR!
Please don't kill me for saying this, but I think that the books couldv'e contained a teeny tiny bit more romance? Maybe it's just me cause I KNOW that I'm a big fan of romances and usually when there isn't any in the story I find the story a bit boring.

Nothing at all in the books. In the movie, lots of things. As much as I want things changed, I would not had I the chance. I'm glad we can't tamper with the past. Because if we did, it might affect the present. Time is best left alone. But back on topic, yes, the movies. Definately Faramir, the elves at Helms Deep, Arwen....

I wouldn't change anything in the books, the films on the other hand if I could have my own way would include everything.

The books I think most people agree they would change nothing! You change one thing your going to be changing something else.
