<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Just to make sure we are talking the same thing, this is the pic right? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Yes, that's the one.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> There is definately at least a couple of people in plate in that picture <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Yes, on studying the shot again, I think that you may well be right, HC (unfortunately I don't have the hi-res trailer to hand, and I'm not spending 2 hours loading it again). And I am pretty sure that they are Faramir's men being swooped on by the Nazgul. It ties in with the shot we see of Gandalf riding out to aid a company of horsemen beset by Nazgul. But I remain unsure as to whether or not this is the same scene as the shot of Faramir on horseback leading a charge. That shot leads into a shot of Gondorian cavalry riding towards an Oliphant's leg, but that could just be the editing again. I hope that you are right, for I would be concerned if Faramir was present at the Pelennor when his rightful place at that time is with his pyromaniac father. <P>As regards Shelob's size, have a look at <A HREF="http://www.theonering.net/staticnews/1065026192.html" TARGET=_blank>this</A>. If this guy's right, the size looks about right to me.<P>And, since I seem to be in a minority of one here, I think that it's best if I shut up now about <I>Theoden's</I> speech.
