A few of you are valiantly making excuses for an innocent mistake! The scriptwriters are not perfect. Frodo hadn't been to maggot's fields in 30 years, and according to jackson, Sam had never ventured to that point, so how would he know? Why on earth would frodo tell sam that he was terrified of maggot, if sam didn't know him or had never been there?<P>PS re gandalf 'capturing' gollum in the books, that's EXACTLY what I meant, but this is not explained in the film. In the film, how did gandalf know that gollum had been captured?
