    Tom Bombadil is probably the biggest omission - both the character and all tge activities that take place around their house. I remembered that sticking out to me when I watched the films for the first time, but at that point I last read the trilogy at least five years prior.

      Understood, but if you did this same graph for most books made into movies, they’d look vastly different. I mean, think of The Shining.
