<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>1) I know you guys have discussed this before, but how does that whole breeding process work? Do they put an orc and a goblin underground and then they mate or something? Or maybe they take both their eggs or sperm? (yeah that sounds nasty but I can't think of another way ) <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I think we just have to go with magic and the whole suspension-of-disbelief thing on this one. It's nothing that's ever explained and the book only touches briefly on the creation of Uruk-hai and never truly explains them. But really - who would want to know anyway. Blah! I think the movie's just trying to get across the fact that they're Saruman's creations and not from nature.<P><BR> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>3) Why does Gandalf have a Lothlorien cloak? Everyone knows he didn't go there when the fellowship did. Maybe we're suppose to assume he did after he was sent back, or that Aragorn had an extra one with him? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>This is a valid point concerning the movie because it's not explained. However, in the book, Galadriel is the one who sent Gwaihir to look for Gandalf (after the whole Balrog thing) and he brings him back to Lothlorien a short time after the rest of the Fellowship has left.<p>[ February 08, 2003: Message edited by: Aratlithiel ]
