Film flubs!!! - Page 2 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

One thing that always bugs me, Saruman clearly tells the Uruk Hai to bring him the haflings alive and unspoiled, yet when they're standing in the woods and Boromir comes to save them, there is an Uruk with a large ax ready to chop them. Correct me if this was in the books, but it seems out of place.

Yay! You brought my thread back to life! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Yeah, now that I think about it, that DOES make no sense. Another thing; in the regular edition of FotR, in Lorien when the Company is met by the Elves, Haldir says "Come...she is waiting." But then in the extended edition, he says something like "You can go no further." I didn't expect them to delete scenes or stuff like that.

Maybe they just put that line in to cover up where they'd chopped the flet scene, but t wouldn't make sense with the flet scene in.

(that made no sense)

I am bringing the thread back to life. Tomorrow I will watch FOTR for the first time in months. We have now got a new television.

I'll watch for flubs.

Hey there Elentari II! I haven't seen you on here for a long time.

Another thing, has anyone ever noticed the litte sort of "Huh!" thing that Frodo does to Boromir when he says "And you will beg for death before the end!!!" It's like "Huh, yeah right loser."

ok correct me if im wrong this is kinda hard to explain.

ok the scene in FOTR where Gandalf is reading the account of isiluder and the finding of the ring the camra shows the tengwar inscription on the paper. is the Tengwar wrong or am i lacking in tolkeinology?? on the end of the verses where the tengwar looks like ELF the top curve is missing on the E looking character of i think the first verse?? Gandalf reads "as the markings on the band begin to fade" could that explain why its wrong??
