83. Meeting Gandalf in Bree and a Glimpse of Gildor : Film Changes #25 and #26

We’re going over 2 more changes to The Fellowship of the Ring this week!

1. Gandalf tells Frodo to meet him at the Prancing Pony… which leads to a full 6 CHAPTERS cut from the films!
2. Frodo and Sam never get to spend any time with Gildor in the films–and only get a fleeting glimpse of “Wood Elves” 🤮

In our extended episode (available for our members — $4/mo and free for the first month) we talk more about these changes, in addition to:

• Would the “spotted toad” threat have been a bad movie moment if Jackson added it?
• If we could keep one–and ONLY one–of the myriad things Jackson left out between Hobbiton and Bree, what would it be?
