Kili has a beard! It's a short beard rather than a long one, but he's got a full mustache and beard. Fili's beard is rather short as well. I think this may be to demarcate them as being the "youngsters" in the group.
There was something about Radagast that reminded me of The Regent in Babylon 5, another apparently foolish but actually pretty smart character. I think that's why the goofiness didn't bother me as much as it might have otherwise.
Yep on the Scouring. I suppose he might be saving that for subsequent movies...
Overall I preferred the LOTR movies to this one, but I might come to feel differently.
I don't see how the Scouring could be done in the future. Saruman and Wormtongue died at Orthanc.
Jackson chose to present the Scouring as a vision of a possible future, which has now been closed off by the actions taken in the present. And frankly, I think he made the right choice.
