Okay, I read through most of the list, and you know what? I agree with Peter Jackson on his changes. Most of the changes found by the people on this website are rediculously inconsequential. As for Arwen and Eowyn, those are more major, but I like the new roles they've been given. They both had enormous effects on the events in the story but had very little parts. Why? Because Tolkien couldn't write women. It's a simple fact that he realized and intelligently compensated for. If you have to re-interpret a story to create a screenplay anyway, why not give important characters more screentime?
Don't get me wrong, though. I still hate having Liv Tyler in the role.
