I only wish they hadn't killed the Mouth of Sauron so quickly. It would have been far better in my own mind if Aragorn had battled him instead of the troll.

I know that the trol was cgi'd in over a filmed sequence of Sauron ( I'm so glad they didn't use this idea! It is so far from the book that I can't believe they even entertained the idea. ) and Aragorn fighting.

It would have been very cool seeing the The Mouth of Sauron put on some cool moves in battle.

I was always intrigued by this character. I was happy he made the directors cut, but I had inside info that he would. I just wish that they might have given him a few minutes more exposure. After all whats two more minutes in a 3 hour film?

And I loved that my hunch as to who played the Mouth of Sauron was right. I saw that mouth, and thought who the hell is that... and then the gyro captain came to mind... Bruce Spence, pure genious casting.
