This was my fear. I suppose I must go see it, but I am afraid that the movie will dissapoint me for the same reasons. For me, the book lives in the mind. To see it on the screen is one thing, but to have it changed in any way, such as you have mentioned, seems to corrupt Tolkien's own vision, which is the only version I care to claim as the one living in my head. Sigh. It is a shame... but I will have to give my own actual opinion of the movie later...
