Of course, going by Jackson's version, he could've blasted all the ents out of spite because they turned his tower into an island--but for some reason he didn't. There are definitly holes that can be found (as usual).

This is my main gripe with the Scriptwriters. When we have large (or small) changes from the book we can find plot holes amongst many of them, as your example above shows.
I remember a big discussion on another forum a couple of years back where we were musing what would have happened if, say, Pippin was replaced by Glorfindel in the Fellowship. I was on the 'keep Pippin' side of the debate, and it really showed how TIGHT Tolkien's plot was, and if you start changing anything, it has a domino effect on the rest of the story.
Anyway, I can find no plot holes in the Books. (I'm not talking about Deus ex Machina by the way, so don't mention the eagles!) Has anyone found any plot holes at all in the books?
