I do know that Jackson will be actually showing the Ents seige of Isengard. In the books, we only have Merry's and Pippin's narration. Hopefully, this is the battle TORN was talking about.

I've often wondered why this enthralling scene was only told by the junior Hobbits. Was it to strengthen their characters, or was it a throwback to the old way of storytelling, in which everything was told in the third person?
