Hey, I’m looking for the deleted scene when Elrond says “Nine companions to match the Nine Ringwraiths … So be it”
Anyone know of a video on youtube or elsewhere?Also when is this long heralded new deleted scenes edition coming out?
It might be located in the raw footage of the council of elrond on the extended edition special features… If not it’s unreleased or present in the script not the final film.
The Council of elrond was partially reshot so that is why there are a few things in the previously assembled rough cut that fell away.
Phillipa Boyens “do we have to go back there again!”
As previously stated excised prologue material dispersed through out the film… At the council of Elrond we were to see Sauron stab his hand and mix his blood with the ring. Expanding on the scene within the prologue. Aside from this Elrond also was to recite the poem of the ring which it would seem was handed instead to gandalf in black speech for greater dramatic effect.
Hopefully Jackson will release the deleted scenes one day but the most notable thing about especially fellowship is re-ordering scenes dissolves and structure. It’s not as well crafted as it was supposed to be… Let’s be honest about that and clearly Lothlorien suffeted as did Rivendell with these cuts.
This spills in to two towers with chasing the orcs being condensed down and the true ending being absent for death of Saruman but truly a mess up was using Arwens voice on dying frodo rather than a dying Aragorn with brego. Eowyn the nurse and warrior sub plot and the meeting of the elves discusding the world of men.
ROTK is pretty solid if not overbloated in some respects but either way it would be great to see a fully fleshed out version of the trilogy that was not worried about age ratings and really drilled down on the structure the pace and the story.
