 |
|
I've spent all day watching ROTK and TTT and at one point i noticed that (this is in ROTK) when the orcs were attacking Minas Tirith and coming out of the towers one orc came running out - then fell off the side of the plank without anyone touching him.
Anyone else notice this or have other "oopses" they want to mention?

In RoTK. When Theoden orders the Rohirrem to reform the line as the Mumakil are headed towards them, just as they are beginning the charge, a horse rears up and bursts into flames for a moment. That's one of my faves.

ACK! I thought i was just seeing things - - but i thought i saw a horse on fire at one time. Maybe two that seemed to have flames coming from under their bellies. It was when the line reformed - i just thought it was the cold medicine i was on.

TTT: Eomer remounts while the three walkers are standing in the circle of riders and his sword slips out of the scabbard just as the shot pans back to his face. The line is "Look for your friends but do not trust to hope. It has forsaken these lands." Way to ruin a great moment, huh?
Similarly, at the end of TTT there's a shot of Eomer's face with his back toward the Deeping Wall. Over his right shoulder (on the left of the screen) Arwen is riding Asfaloth killing orcs. Look for the burgundy dress.

If I weren't so besotted with that man, I'd have never noticed it.

In the "You would die before your stroke fell!" scene, Leggy's ears go from pointed to rounded, to pointed, to rounded...
In the Fangorn Forest scene, the leaf brooches point left, then right, then left... (Or vice versa).
Somewhere in the background at Helm's Deep, Legolas bowls into an orc and knocks him flying (but I can't remember exactly when it happens). |

| Woah, I am furious with myself! I have watched all three movies about a million times each (to the point where my sister and I recite half the movie script by memory on long car journeys) and I have never noticed any of these! I'll be sure to look for them next time I watch! |

Yeah, I myself know the ROTK almost by heart into extended version (knowing the short one by heart) and I never saw any mistakes. Perhaps it is because of my only 15% remaining vision that is making me to not see them, I don't know. I watched the first extended version and noticed nothing wrong too.
