Are you sure that it's Aragorn who asks Legolas what the lament is saying? I was pretty sure that it was one of the hobbits (Merry or Pippin maybe). Because then in the next scene, you jump to Aragorn talking to Boromir. And Aragorn would probably have spoken both Sindarin and Quenya, and known what they were saying.

Pretty sure. 99.9999% sure. The only hobbit it could possibly be would be Merry. ARGGG! Now I am going to have to see it again to make 100% sure!!! <BR>

oh, Ian McKellen mentioned a glitch on his web-site... The arm of the Argonath (the big statues on the river Anduin) change position.

i noticed the car in the distance as well, although vvvvvvery distantly. Also, the railings in Rivendell were waist high 4 frodo and sam: wouldnt they have been above them due to the elf/hobbit size difference?<BR>I am postive it is merry who asks what they say about gandalf in lorien because iv seen it more than 6 times and read and script online (i need a life..lol). <P>Does any1 else wonder how when the hobbits are heading for the brandywine bridge it has suddenly become night? And if they had been in hiding all day sure frodo would have had the time to fill poor merry and pippin in on what was happening and why they were going where they were!?<P>Dont get me wrong, i love the movie (its my favourite film) but as im sure some1s said; when uv seen it alot u start nit picking!

As Gandals walks up the stairs to Bilbo´s house in the beginning of the film, one of his shoes is visible, and it looks like a yellow hikingboot to me. <BR>But as he steps trough the door, both shoes are gray.<P>I noticed this the last time I went, so now I have to see it again to make sure <BR>Perhaps it´s just the light...?

1420!

I only scanned, so I hope nobody mentioned this stuff. <P>About Arwen's eye color changing, Legolas' do that also, but I believe it's just from the lights. I mean mine do that in real life, so with all the special lighting on a film set and stuff...<P>Did the Hobbit feet bother anybody?! When Bilbo walks in the doorway when Gandalf comes, the front ends of his feet (that sounds funny) look really weird and really fake. <P>But HEY I love the movie dearly, and would gladly watch it once a day (which I do most days!) and dance round the room when the fellowship is walking up the mountain through that rocky thing. ;-) Love that part!<P>Nilaraniel

I looked closely at Arwen's eyes, and didn't see the change in colour. I was right up close too....Close enough to....<B>CENSORED!</B><P><BR>

Bruce, all you'd have to do is rat me out to Aragorn and I'd:<P><B>Run away!

I noticed that one time, you can clearly see Frodo smiling, however, in the next scene he is frowning. A very big mistake indeed.

I noticed the 8 Nazgul a few weeks ago - I found it a bit weird. In the FotR script it says it's Unknown who asks what the elves are singing so i suppose we can't really say.<P>Anyway, off to try and spot the other mistakes - me and my friend saw what looked like a wee car but I can't find it again!

I saw the car! It is very small and red.<P>When Gandalf pulls Sam in through the window into Bag End and tosses him onto the table, you see no books behind Sam's head. When the camera goes from Gandalf back to Cutie...erm...Sam you see books behind him. When you get to see Sam again, the books are gone. It does this a few more times. <P>When Frodo stummbles on Caradharas, you can see where his prosthetic foot attaches to his leg.

In the scene right before the "wizard's duel", you can see that Gandalf's hand is wrapped around the staff and Narya is on his finger. Cut to Saurman, then back to Gandalf, the ring is no longer on his finger. <P>I noticed this the second time I saw it, back in March. When I got it one video, I forgot to look for it, then when with my cousin, I saw it again. If I remember correctly, in that same scene, Saurman has a ring that dissapears also. <P>Just have to go back and put the video on again.
