<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I still think there's no way the daggers will be the ones used, because non-EE watchers will go "huh?"<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>That's not true. As I mentioned, you can't tell what the sword is that is in Merry's hands. Everyone just assumes it is the Rohirrim sword that he has. All that is needed to introduce the Noldor dagger in the extended King would be a close-up of it just before Merry stabs the Witch King and a brief bit of dialogue at Isengard with Gimli or someone giving the daggers back to Merry and Pippin.<P>I'm not saying this will happen, or even that it is likely. I'm just saying it wouldn't be hard.<P>As for the swords Aragorn gives the hobbits. These appear, for all intesive purposes, to be just regular swords. Certainly not the jewel encrusted swords that are described in the book. And besides, Aragorn walking around with four Barrow swords just to give to the hobbits is a bit too much to swallow.<P>H.C.
