Regarding compass directions.<P>It was mentioned that having Eomer say they are riding north after first meeting Aragorn and company is wrong. I don't think it is within the context of the film. For the riders of East Emnet, riding north doesn't mean they're getting out their compasses and going due north (which leads into Fangorn). It means they're going into the Wold and considering they are orc hunting, that is the logical place they would go. I know it will be argued that they should go west to help in the Westfold, but Eomer wasn't there when those two kids arrived to inform them of what was happening that way. Ah, but didn't Theodred die defending the Westfold. You're thinking of the book. In the film it simply says he was ambushed by orcs and it was obvious from the news from the two kids that Theoden did not know about any attacks to the west yet.<P>Now as for Legolas saying the orcs are turning north-east to Isengard when it should have been north-west, I think that is a mistake. Maybe it will be overdubbed for the DVD.<P>H.C.<P>Editted to add: I think East Emnet should be Eastfold. Bloody Rohan geography. <P>[ January 16, 2003: Message edited by: HCIsland ]<p>[ January 16, 2003: Message edited by: HCIsland ]
