"Gandalf's light to drive off the Nazgul should have been brighter. It says in the book it is a blinding flash of light. Jackson underexaggerated Gandalf's light making it look like a dinky flashlight."
"ERROR IN THE MOVIES! Legolas' eye color changes from blue to green? How come?" (I'm sorry to the person who wrote this, but I find myself too busy watching the wonderful scenery then paying attention to the eye color of people).
"Narsil was only broken in two pieces, not 10."
"Elendil was too short, he should have been taller."
"Boromir's hair was too light, he was like the rest of the Gondorians, black hair."
I find all these nit-picky and meaningless complaints by people. So, what sort of picky, picky, picky, complaints have you found from others?

None of the above changes from the book really annoy me. I'm far more ticked off that the Gondorians seem to come across as incompetant cowards who can't even take out a little 5'4" Snaga by themselves. Is this nit-picking?
