Here are a few things that irked me about LotR.

1) What happened to the elves at Helms Deep after Haldir died its like they all disappeared, not one mention of them after that. Not even a body, although I cant remember if there was one in the EE.

2) Their is the fact that they made Anduril so damn big that Aragorn could never wear it sheathed throughout the whole movie except when hes on a horse, and for the point when he becomes king, even then it looks ridiculously big.

3) The scene when the trio enter Rohan from their chase after the battle at Rauros. Aragorn asks "Legolas, what do your elf eye's see". He replies "The unit has turned NORTH EAST, they are taking the hobbits to Isengard." Legolas needs a compass. I thought Isengard was at the western most point of Rohan.

4) The most blatant scene of goofs is when Gandalf, Aragorn, et al enter Edoras to face Wormtongue. At points Legolas is helping Gandalf walk then the shot switches and they are totally seperate. At points Gandalf has his staff out at other points he is carrying it behind his cloak. It just shows that this scened took far too many shots to keep the flow more genuine.
