The differences between J.R.R. Tolkien's book, The Two Towers, and the Peter Jackson movie screenplay of the same name are very difficult to document because of the substantial difference in plot sequence between them. There are two major plot threads in this story that are presented very differently between the book and the screenplay. They are: 1. * the exploits of Frodo and Sam on the road to Mordor and 2. * the adventures of the other characters in the lands of the West—Gondor, Rohan, Fangorn, etc.

  • The differences between J.R.R. Tolkien's book, The Two Towers, and the Peter Jackson movie screenplay of the same name are very difficult to document because of the substantial difference in plot sequence between them. There are two major plot threads in this story that are presented very differently between the book and the screenplay. They are: 1. * the exploits of Frodo and Sam on the road to Mordor and 2. * the adventures of the other characters in the lands of the West—Gondor, Rohan, Fangorn, etc. Instead of separating the two major threads into two internal books as Tolkien did, the storylines are interwoven in the screenplay to keep up the pace and progress of each. In the movie, the Two Towers are Orthanc and Barad-dur,but in the book it is Orthanc and Minas Morgul. In this article, these storylines are "unshuffled" into two subsections to make it more intelligible, but because the movie starts with Frodo and Sam, that is where we start here instead of the other way around as in the book. The differences between the movie and book are described here in considerable detail. The order is intended to be that of the movie, and it is also the intent that this article should eventually include all significant differences between them.
