Note: Many originally believed that the “wizard kabob” was a prank that Peter Jackson played on people attempting to spy on the production. Besides, the Scouring of the Shire is one of the best parts of the book. By not imprisoning him in Orthanc, it robs the filmmakers a chance to show Gandalf’s compassion. It is poetic justice that he dies upon his own machinery (as well as an in-joke about Christopher Lee’s portrayal of Dracula in other Film).Ĭon: Impalement is a cheesy death, seen in too many other Film. Pro: If there is no time to fully depict the Scouring of the Shire as Tolkien wrote it in the third film, then this death Provides his character with a fitting end. He is pushed off the balcony by Grima and is impaled on one of his machines, a spiked wheel.īook: Saruman dies after Wormtongue slashes his throat in the Shire at the end of the War of the Ring.
Film: Saruman is killed after his staff is broken by Gandalf.
