Saruman's ending (PJ's way) P.S. Spoilers!

[gorthaur_cruel]

Wait a second -- he's at the top of Orthanc? As in the same place where he did those crazy magic tricks to make the avalanche on Caradhras?

Judging by everything from the trailers and screenshots, yes.

Does it really matter where Saruman talks to them just as long as he talks to them?

No, but I'm just curious. I think this is one of those moments where PJ changed the book for no reason at all. It's not like having him talk from the top of Orthanc will impress anybody more than talking from the balcony. In fact, it actually does matter, in a way. In addition to Legolas' arrow not reaching Wormtongue, how are they supposed to hear the infamous voice of Saruman?
