It was clear to the writers from the beginning that the entire final sequence of the individual novel (Frodo and Sam's encounter with Shelob) would be part of the third movie, not this one. Also, the confrontation with a defeated Saruman at Isengard was deemed to be too anti-climactic, and was therefore moved to the third movie, as well. This tactical move meant the battle for Helm's Deep became this movie's natural climax.
