Is there any scene from the book that you are glad are not in the film?

I'm fine without [In reply to] Can't Post

the animals bringing in the meal at Beorn's house. It's one of those things I can't see working very well on film, probably because it never worked very well in my imagination either.

Silverlode

Roads go ever ever on
Under cloud and under star
Yet feet that wandering have gone
Turn at last to home afar.
Eyes that fire and sword have seen
And horror in the halls of stone
Look at last on meadows green
And trees and hills they long have known.

Beorn's animal servants - me too [In reply to] Can't Post

I always wondered how it all worked with their paws and hooves but regardless they were a step too far for me.

What she said... [In reply to] Can't Post

I have to agree with Silverlode and add the talking purse.

"Things need not to have happened to be true.
Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure
when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot."

I did not like the idea of Beorn's animal servants.

Rivendell elves singing silly songs [In reply to] Can't Post

That would have just been awkward. Also glad that Bilbo did not get knocked out early on & miss the entire battle, how boring would that be?
