Sorry Tuor but it was a Black Arrow....... The Red Arrow came from Minas Tirith to Rohan for aid. But I get your drift.....

But that small detail doesn't matter! The Red Arrow needs some history behind it.

I completely agree with Galadriel55. I think it being out of place only makes it more desirable in the eyes of PJ.

Not entirely...there was the whole army of the dead at Minas Tirith thing, which mostly just seemed to be an excuse for more CGI...

Hmm. How to reconcile what would seem at first glance to be an
error on the color of the Smaug-killing arrow? Now what would Tolkien do... Wait! The arrow was of course black, but after being eventually retrieved from The Long Lake it remained forever coated with Smaug's blood and was therefore renamed the "Red Arrow." Fun Fact: In the $$$ successful Peter Jackson 2-part movie of The Hobbit it is Legolas who retrieves and renames the arrow.

Or a film called The Black Arrow..... a cross between Men in Tights and The Lord of the Rings to be sub-titled The Importance of Colour-coded Arrows in Warfare.

Now all that we need to come up with is how it got to Denethor. Ummmm... Legolas gave it as a gift to the Captain of Gondor for his military help. Esgaroth is a north Gondorian settlement, right? I mean, what else could it be?
