I don't know if this counts but I thought it was really bizarre, how when Aragorn was 'tracking' Merry and Pippin just outside of Fangorn, he stopped all of a sudden when they reached the forest, and just said 'Fangorn' in alarm, like the forest had snuck up on them or something. Didn't they notice it before?<P>And my mom pointed out on two occasions when the Uruk-hai are very quiet until the last moment, once, in FotR just before Frodo left alone for Mordor, and you suddenly see and hear about two hundred Uruk. The same as when Grima asked Saruman where they 'can they get an army of such size,' and bam, perfectly suddenly and soundless, there's one right outside the window. <P>I know it sounds like I'm overly bitter about the movies, those two things just sort of, well don't click.<P>Oh, one last thing. I don't think Orlando did the triple flipple double back wrist rotater thing that Leggy did in TTT. It must have been CGI. Mustn't it have? If it wasn't, I gotta know how that's humanly possible.<p>[ February 13, 2003: Message edited by: Sadbh ]
