Umm..that shot is only a few seconds long, and he's just coming through the gate (which is obstructing our vision of most of what's outside of it, obviously) and getting off his horse. Who's to say that he didn't have a whole squadron of men a couple of yards behind him, and his horse was just a bit faster? Boromir would be the leader of course, no need for him to stay in formation. Maybe he wanted to arrive half an hour sooner both to let Elrond and Co. know that "we're here!" and also, frankly, to get a bit of extra attention. One thing Boromir is not shy of is the limelight.<P>And for that matter, who's to say the men didn't all enter BEFORE him? Obviously we're only going to get a shot of Boromir since there's not much sense in spending five minutes watching random extras ride on until we get to him. <P>It doesn't bother me. Call me careless. But it's not that unbelievable.
