Sorry can't help myself get dragged into a faramir argument. What plot hole? I'm all for pointing out plot holes when they happen in the movies (the power of the Ring etc) - bur movie Faramir SHOT DOWN the fell beast and the nazgul (that's why there were only 8 at the gates of mordor later on) - so he didn't go back to report to his master. and shortly afterwards Pippin loks into the Palantir and BANG there's the halfling with the Ring for Sauron to concentrate on.........

Also, as PJ said in the EE comentary, they were transposing the scene from Minas Morgul to Osgiliath (you know, where Frodo is tempted to put on the Ring by the Witch King as he sets off to War) - so not TOTALLY sacrligeous to the story............

anyway, don't mind me, let's get back to the Leggy bashing....................
