Helm's deep is changed quite a bit to make a more streamlined story, and the Saruman storyline is given a very different ending. Even Hobbiton is given a happy end in favor of the books. And Arwen, the love interest, does not appear once in the book (only in the appendixes)

That's what i meant: The story would have to be adapted to become a movie. make it work for a movie.
