I don't know how long this thread will last, but here we go:

Are there any mistakes in LotR that bother you? Such as in the Pelennor Fields, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are all together when Lego "attacks" the Mumak (oliphaunt). The Mumak runs for quite a ways before Lego kills it, and slides down the trunk. When he reaches the bottom, Gimli is already there. "That still only counts as one!" Now maybe the creature turned as it was running, but I don't think so. Dwarves may be natural sprinters, very dangerous over short distances, but that wasn't exactly a short distance.

or

I'm sure this one was rather obvious: Frodo is stung by Shelob's gigantic stinger in the chest. Later when we see him with his shirt of, there is only a little mark there.

Well, I'll let everyone take it from here.
