Quick Correction: Grima did want Eowyn’s hand in marriage as will be later revealed in a future chapter. Although the scene in the movie is fabricated, it is there to represent this later point. Thanks to all who noticed this! 🫡 Teamwork makes the dreamwork.

One geographic continuty error that happens in the movie is in the famous (and memed) "They're taking the hobbits to Isengard" scene, Legolas says "The Uruks turn north-east." before his mentioned line. This is wrong as from where they are located, in the Eastemnet, not too far from Parth Galen and the Falls of Rauros, Isengard is actually south-west, NOT north-east.

It is actually confirmed in the book that Wormtongue was after Eowyn. It is mentioned by Gandalf when he and the three companions confront Wormtongue and help Theoden.

I assumed that a group of Rohan's men headed for Helm's Deep came by after the children rode off and took the mom with them. Remember, there were already a large number of people at Helm's Deep when the group from Edoras got there.

This makes sense! Especially in book format… I guess what I get hung up on for the film is that as the children are riding away they look back and the village is pretty much being burned down and plundered at that moment. So unless the Rohirrim showed up literally right when the scene cuts away, I don’t think they would have gotten there in time. Perhaps some of the villagers snuck off or hid in time and weren’t found. 👀

Gríma did want Eowyn's hand in marriage, that's why he got into Saruman's service i the first place, though this is confirmed later after Théoden is healed from Saurman's inflence and he gives Wormtongue to either ride with him to war to prove his loyaltiy or to go back to his master Saruman. This is also the scene where Eomer's line "What was his promised prize, Gríma? When all the men are dead you get a part of the treasure?", though I forgot who says it in the book but it could be Aragorn, Théoden or Gandalf who says it.

While the kids that is sent away by their mom when the Wildmen and Uruks attack Westfold, are made up for the movie (as well as their mom), the boy and the mom's names does come from the books. The boy is named Éothain, which is one of Eomer's men who is surrounding Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli in the upcoming chapters, while the mom is named Morwen (though her name isn't mentioned in the movie, she is listed in the credits, like with Lurtz), who was Théoden's mother (there's also another Morwen in The First Age, mentioned in The Silmarillion).

Some points here: First, I agree the condensed chase is good, and the areal landscape shots with the glorious fellowship theme music open up the whole movie in an awesome way, at the same time introducing the three characters into the Two Towers. Second, Eomer is hard done by both in terms of plot and screen time. A shame he was cut from all the Edoras and Helms Deep scenes. Third, in terms of location, the landscape of Rohan was supposed to be flat, not beautifully newzealandish.

As far as the flat plains go, I noticed that as well. Not sure why I didn’t mention it. Probably cause I actually like the New Zealand scenery anyway, so no complaints here. 😂

Loving these, thank you! I’m rereading the book and so confused as to why I’m seeing Saruman confronted in the Two Towers sectionby Gandalf when I’m sure it was from ROTK in the film? And he doesn’t die by Wormtongue 😮

There might be one timeline change in PJ's The Two Towers. Aragorn tells Eowyn that he is 87 years old. Either: A) The Three Hunters encounter Gandalf the White and reach Edoras before the beginning of March (March 1st being Aragorn's birthday) or B) Peter Jackson has outright changed Aragorn's age, making him 86 years old when he meets Frodo in Bree. Come to think of it, this is really a timeline change either way, isn't it?

having scenes from the villains point of view is a purely movie thing. Almost no forms of literature has straight up chapters from the villains point of view. the few exceptions are like the opening of "goblet of fire" where Harry is seeing a vision from Nagisa's point of view. I believe it is both necessary to add these scenes when you adapt a book to a movie and a valuable skill for a writer/director. In the books they had chapters where Gandalf told Frodo what happened while he was away and in the movies those stories were accompanied by footage of what he was talking about. but why have so much of the story only occur in flashbacks after it is done. Why not just remove the flashback and show it in real time as it was happening.

Agreed! A lot of these scenes are necessary to fill the viewer in on details we wouldn’t otherwise have. It avoids confusion later on.

It is weird. The Rohirrim are said in the books not to keep written histories, but preserve their past in song. I suppose they could have picked up some system of written law from Gondor over the years, but it is unlikely.
