Well, I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one who didn't manage to spot any Easterlings on the Pelennor Fields. No, wait, I'm not glad I'm outraged! <P>Just today I listened to Richard Taylor prattle on about the amount of work that went into the costumes of the Easterlings that we see (travelling up from the south ) in <I>The Two Towers</I>. Sure, that was a lovely few minutes of film, but why waste time on that if they don't even appear in <I>The Return of the King</I>?! <P>Either put them in, or don't, I say. None of this halfway stuff. I really hope they appear in the Extended Edition, or their one appearance is absolutely pointless as Southrons could have been more easily (and accurately) used. I guess if they did that there'd be one less action figure, though.
