Should The Lord of the Rings Films have kept the Barrow-downs?
Dropping the Barrow-downs removes one of the most important callbacks in the final Battle of the Pelennor Fields before Minas Tirith. It also excises some of the wonderful depth of Middle-earth that Tolkien reveals in these nods and glances.
We also take a look at the new game, “Tales of the Shire.”
