   They fleshed out a lot of scenes as well, as the stone giants that in   
   the movie seem to be fighting each others rather than playing a game   
   with rocks. THe company is caught up in the middle of this and this is   
   turned into a suspension sequence. I rather like this approach more   
   than just Bilbo peering out in the night and noticing the stone giants   
   in the distance.
