If anyone has any other sites on movie mistakes please tell me about them I would really love it !</I><P>The stew pot that Sam cooks the conies in is much bigger than the one he has been carrying around on his back. <P>Arwen's pendant that Aragorn is wearing moves from side to side in the scene before the evacuation of Edoras and also at Helm's Deep when Aragorn is talking to Theoden on the walls.<P>The flower that Theoden is holding while he is in front of his son's tomb has 8 petals, but when he drops it, it has only 6, and the flowers on the ground have only 5 petals.<P>The Battle of Helm's Deep: Exactly two shots before Gimli slides down between the legs of an Orc and smashes his axe on his chest, look carefully at the Elf on the left side of the screen. He arches his bow and fired, followed by a specific sound effect, but no arrow.<P>Near the end of the battle of Helm's deep when Theoden just gets on his horse to fight, he is wearing the helmet he just put on. In the next shot, his is wearing no helmet while charging toward the Orcs, and in the shot right after that, he is still on his horse racing out, and his helmet is back on his head. <P>After Aragon, Gimili and Legolas confront the riders that slaughtered the band of Uruk Hai, the leader claims they burnt the corpes, and points out plumes of smoke on the horizon. How very odd that Aragon the marvelous Ranger and Legolas with the fantastic Elven eyesight both overlooked this glaringly obvious feature to the scenery. <P>In the scene after the Helm's Deep battle, when Aragorn meets Eowyn, the earlier footage of Aragorn's return to Helm's Deep is used. He has the wound on his shoulder and is dressed like he was during the 'falling' episode. The background (people in the fortress walking calmly) also indicates that this takes place before the battle. This scene should immediately follow the one, where Aragorn is greeted by Gimli ('you are the most reckless man I ever knew').<BR> <BR>The scene when the three companions first meet Gandalf: After Aragorn drops his sword, Gimli lowers his axe and holds it by his right hand. When the shot changes, Gimli holds it by two hands and in a ready position. The same thing with Legolas, his bow changes position, and Aragorn with his legs.<BR> <BR>There is one shot in the Battle of Isengard when it shows Saruman wandering on the balcony - it is played backwards, indicated by the unusual movement of his hair. <P>When Treebeard throws Merry and Pippin to the ground at the feet of the white wizard, look between Merry's feet and Pippin's feet as they lie there. You'll see two circular mounds of dirt - probably the marks they were standing on before they threw themselves on the ground. <P>After the orcs blow up that wall at Helms Deep, the rocks that are blasted out are moving as if in slow motion, yet the spears of the orcs are moving at regular speed. <P>most scenes with Gollum, he has a small pouch attatched to his narrow belt over the right hip. Early in the scenes where Golum is leading the Hobbits through the bog, you don't see the pouch. Later you do. <P>In the scene before the battle of Helm's Deep when Legolas is arguing with Aragorn, his eyes are brown, rather than blue. <P>Merry and Pippin were bound when taken by the Uruk-Hai, and the bonds weren't cut until after they managed to escape during the fight. Yet, when the horse almost crashed down on Pippin, he had his arms spread out up near his face, not bound, even though they weren't cut until later.<BR> <BR>When Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli enter the King of Rohan's chamber, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli start knocking down soldiers to protect Gandalf. When they have finished, there is a shot taken from behind and one of the beaten soldiers is lying on the floor playing with his hair, curling it around his finger.<BR> <BR>In the scene in the storeroom where Sam is suggesting Frodo use the Ring to escape, Frodo is initially sitting in front of a barrel. Then Faramir arrives and Frodo and Sam are now sitting on a cloak and there are no barrels in sight. <P>After Merry and Pippin escape from the Uruk-Hai, Merry has a deep cut over his right eye. Very often the cut changes. It starts out over his right eye all bloody, then it changes to his left eye and it is still bloody. Then it goes back to his right eye but is clean, then it disappears entirely and comes back later to over his right eye and not bloody. <P>When Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli meet Eomer and the Riders of Rohan, Eomer says that they burnt all the bodies of the Orc company. He points towards where they Orcs are piled and from a distance there is a shot of smoke rising from a fire. There is no forest nearby. When the travellers reach the pile of dead Orcs they are only yards from the eaves Fangorn Forest, which is vast and would surely have been visible even from a distance. <P>At the end of the film, when the heroes of the big battle are watching the lightning over Mordor, you can see in the background that the big hole in the wall on Helms Deep is gone. <P><I>he he .... </I>
