Eh, that's why books with so much detail to them are better to not be adapted to film, or maybe left to a mini series of sorts. Three movies, as godawful long as they were, can never pack as much information in without making theatre-goers crazy.
Actually, same goes with Harry Potter. A lot is missed in the movies; it may not be essential information, but makes more sense reading the books than the movies do. But, I'm not gonna sit through a 4 hour movie in the theatre just to get that extra scene thrown in.
