Not the published work, but Tolkien had much more story in his original manuscript which wasn't used in the book. The whole thing about the necromancer in the south was merely mentioned in the book, whereas you get a lot more detail in the film. This is the one case I can think of in which the movies actually have more story than the book.

I like how you say little when Ive read somewhere that he is actually the tallest to ever play a leading role. (Or something like that)

He's like a tower made of toothpicks.

He is a serious badass though. He used to hunt nazis and he taught Peter Jackson what the sound of stabbing someone sounds like.

Why did he teach him that?
