Any moments in LOTR where you wish things would change?

Like i keep urging Boromir to win everytime i see the fight scene, because i hate seeing him lose in Fellowship of the Ring.
It's a very sad scene. The Fellowship is my favourite of the three films. Almost half of TTT has me wishing for it to be different as there is so much changed for no good reason. As Nostalgia Chick called it: "Forced Peej Conflict". Changes for the sake of drama and nothing else.
 
Is there times you rewatch LOTR that you wish it could be different

Yes, every single time I see it.

My box set of EE DVDs haven't seen the light of day since 201something. I catch a segment between commercials when it's on a free-to-air channel and I'm surfing by.


Yep. I wish Arwen hadn't stolen my horse.

I got a good laugh from this!😆
 
It doesn't matter because I still see the badly written/totally fabricated scenes (Merry arguing with Treebeard about the necessity of attacking Isengard, and Frodo offering the Ring to the WitchKing at Osgiliath ) or the scenes with bad casting/character portrayal (anything with Faramir and Denethor and some with Gandalf, Eowyn, Theoden, Aragorn.. oops, getting carried away).
So I either pull out the DVDs or go to youtube for the scenes that were done well (per the book or close enough to it) and also to see the bigatures from a distance (Imladris, Argonath., Minas Tirith, pre-ruined Orthanc, Grey Havens)
 
I was kinda partial to ruined Orthanc myself...
You liked that?!
You must have taken some "ugly pills for the eyes"... that was horrible looking; book accurate, but horrible none-the-less.
Actually, it is more accurate to say pre- (or post) ruined Isengard.
Orthanc itself remained unaffected except for a few scratches.
