Very interesting idea, Helen. You're absolutely right about Saruman's death in the book being critical for the character of Frodo. However, I can't imagine an ending for Saruman without the scene at Isengard. The last couple of times I have read the book, that scene really stood out as monumental. <P>I'm <I>kind of</I> looking forward to seeing it in the EE, but I really wish that it had been at the end of the last movie to bring closure to that chapter of the story. Needless to say, it will be <B>very</B> weird seeing Flotsam and Jetsam without The Voice of Saruman!
