Yeah, well, it doesn't take much markmenship to fire an arrow into a formation of Uruks & hit one . But it does to keep hitting them consistently when they're on the move.

I did not like how they made the Gondorians idiots. Why would Gandalf have to tell them to shoot the trolls and not the towers?
I have the feeling that most of the archers were firing at the towers out of desperation. When you see something moving steadily towards your face (& you know it can't be good), I'm guessing you tend to fire desperately at the closest thing (the metal lates). Incidently, I'm with you for the most part on the Gondorian soldiers, but more on the way they seemed to be entirely incapable of fighting off the orcs. Or the way their armour seemed to not be able to hold up to anything .
