He definately did not have Shadowfax at that time. He got Shadowfax from Theoden after escaping from Isengard. They got this right.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> 1.Are the mini-towers at Barad-Dûr caricatures of Sauron in his armour? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>You are noticing something that I am not here.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> 2. In the account of Isildur, he says that "Already the writing...begins to fade" and this is shown by the letters disappearing as he is holding It on the Battlefield, but surely writing wouldn't be his concern with A FIELD FULL OF VERRRY ANGRY ORCS RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>He remembered what was written and knows the language. The scroll was written well after the battle in Minas Tirith.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>3.After Gandalf says "One Ring....bind them", we cut to a shot of Frodo pouring tea, and Gandalf continuing his speech. But tea takes a long time to boil...what did they do in between?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Is it that hard to imagine that there may have already been a hot pot by the stove when Gandalf came in? Besides, what do you want them to do? Extend the the dialogue for the sole purpose of watching water boil. That would be exciting. <P>Actually, if I remember the scene correctly, there is a cut implying a time delay here. They were in the living room and then in the kitchen. Obviously some time has gone by.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> 4.When Frodo says "What must I do?" We cut to him packing BEFORE Gandalf says "You must leave"...Hmm...Psychic! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>Nothing wrong with this. Just good editting. Makes the scene far more dynamic which is the idea, to lend some urgency to Frodo going. It's not meant to be taken this literally.<P>As for the unbound and then bound Pippin hands, that seems to be a mistake. I saw it too.<P>As for Boromir's moving hand, I've seen Fellowship numberous times (I'm certainly not counting) and never noticed this. I'll watch for it but it can't be that bad.<P>H.C.
