100. Should The Lord of the Rings Films have kept the Barrow-downs?

Join our Discord Channel!

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.”

• * If Tom Bombadil was removed from the film, how could Jackson have integrated the Barrow-downs scene into his film?
• Thoughts on our next podcast series.
