I think that maybe the coming of the Dunadin is in the extended verison because in Aragorn's pep speech in front of the gates of Mordor the way he phrased it sounded like they may be there.

Also to the person who thinks that Sam would not be considered a ring bearer because he never put on the ring. I got the feeling from the book that a person did not have to wear the ring to be a ring bearer, the person just had to be in possession of it. Example is how Frodo never put it on during the time between Biblo's departure and Frodo's but he did not age.

The Eye Actual Proof

I just got back from Comic-Con International, San Diego. On friday, there was a special screening of clips of scenes that will appear in the EE. In addition, Billy Boyd and David Wenham were there, making it hard to hear over the girly screams.

Here's what I saw:

~Houses of Healing
-Aragorn healing various people
-Faramir and Eowyn on the balcony (very sweet. He says the line "In this hour I do not think any darkness could endure")
~The Mouth of Sauron
~Saruman
-I saw one of him talking to Gandalf from his balcony
-And another of him smacking Grima
~More of Eowyn and Aragorn
~Eomer finding Eowyn on the Pellenor
~Pippin finding Merry on the Pellenor.
-this one was interesting. Billy Boyd gave an interesting tidbit of information by saying that they changed that scene in the theatrical version from daytime to nighttime for the EE.
~Faramir and Pippin talking about Faramir's family

I think that's all. I tried to take notes but that didn't work out, so if I think of anything more I'll post it.

I just saw the RotK EE trailer...u can find it at http://www.hdr-see.de/, if you want. It's got a really bad quality, because it was video-ed by someone. So you can hear all the fans screaming during particular scenes.

It starts off with Saruman saying that he doesn't want Gandalf's mercy, and shoots a bolt of fire down at him from the top of Orthanc. My personal favorite scene was at the end, when Gandalf confronts the Witch King. The WK draws out a blade that catches fire and tells Gandalf "This is my hour". Though I heard that Gandalf actually loses this fight, which might make it my least favorite scene in the end

Saraphrim: Thanks for the post! I myself didn't read it, because I've decided I want the last EE to be as much of a suprise as possible (not counting speculation ), but I saw it was a long list, so it must've been good!

Ring Interesting....

Well, I've been reading all the posts of this forum, and one that I have found is not here. I was on a Frodo site, and I found some very interesting pictures... they're apparently from the TTTEE feturettes ect, the one on RotK.

They show what could happen if Frodo became like Gollum - which was a possiblity in LotR. I think they could be in the RotKEE, possibly as a dream of Sam's?

If you want to see them: http://www.frodoforever.com/ttt2gal1.php

They're about 12 lines down. There's eight of them (4 of Elijah Wood in make-up, 3 screencaps and one on-set).

What do you think?

NZ Ringbearer: Somewhere in the vast assortment of commentaries on the TTT EE they tell us that they toyed with the idea of Faramir seeing what Frodo 'would become if he were to keep the Ring'. This is the Frodo that we see in the pics you linked us to (thanks!), & it happened after Frodo pushed the sword away & crouched down by those rocks just before Faramir decides to take them to Osgiliath. I've posted before that I think it would've been really cool if we could've had the option to watch TTT with that particular scene included, something you could turn on or off (like the cast commentary). While that doesn't sound like something PJ would really do, I still would've loved to see it !
So I don't think it'll be in the RotK EE, despite the fact that I'd love to see it somewhere.
