Well I like Tolkien's discription of htem. However, I do not like to think of Trolls as having hair. So I am glad they made them bald. However they could have not made there skin smooth.

Ya, that would be really cool! There back looked like that however, just like you said. But I like how they made the trolls. Sorry, but there are some things that they should have left in the movie, however some things I think Petter Jackson and the people of the movies made even better then J.R.R. Tolkien.

Ya, I do not think to many scales would be cool. It would be a bit overwelming. But they still could have put more on them.

I still hate it when they just get things plain wrong in the movies.

But it was a good choice to leave the battle of Bywater out of it.

Yes, that would have prolonged the movie too much.

But we're not talking about things being left out. We're talking about things they got wrong.
