Galadriel voice over for ROTK?
IMDB states that...
"The film was originally going to end with a voice-over epilogue by Cate Blanchett's character, Galadriel, detailing the fate of the fellowship of the ring after the events of the movie."
and I recall Jackson mentioning this in the commentary track for Fellowship.
Thoughts on why this was scraped because I had been looking for it at the end as a nice bookend for the trilogy.

The film ends with the very last line from the book, so it would make sense to add a Galadriel voice-over before that final ending.
However, doesn't Jackson and co. make reference to dropping the idea of the Blanchett voice-over at the end in the commentary track for TTT: EE?
Or maybe in one of the video segments?

True, the movie ends with the final line in the text of the novel, but there's also a huge-assed appendix back there. 
It would just be like Lady G reading select lines from the Appendix.
No conflict.
