[The Only Real Estel]

i think it was well-done...the spotlight was merely to show how he got distracted

If that part of your quote was serious, here's my response to it :

It showed how he got distracted, but it also was foolish. Sauron is all-seeing (nearly), & wouldn't have his sight concentrated in a beam like that for any reason. If they wanted to show that he was distracted, they could've just shown his eye swiveling towards the Gate. Just leave out the beam though.
