Seriously, I felt that they added tremendously to the story (Treebeard's Entmoot and March of the Ents still doesn't make sense though, how did they all just appear?). I especially love the end of TTT when Merry and Pippin found Saruman's stash: classic.


Treebeard's entmoot & march were part of the book. In the book it says something about Teebeard calling them all together. Besides, the trees are obviously alive (Note: the trees got up & walked one night) so they could have carried word to the rest of the Ents.


I know that it was in the book, but the fact is that in the book all of the Ents agreed at the Entmoot to go against Saruman. Do you not remember that long song treebeard sang about casting down towers and monstrosities? Anyway, in the movie all of a sudden these rare Ents that agreed to not get involved in the wars of men suddenly come out in droves right next to orthanc, which is around 200m from where treebeard had his entmoot: that was what I was referring to.
