SPOTTED MISTAKES!! *spoilers warning* - Page 2

Maybe i'm being stupid...but seriously about the trainers?

Well i'm pretty sure this was a mistake....Brego changes colour...

eowyngirl14 · 12-22-2002, 11:37 PM

This is a little off topic, but when my friend asked why a Gandolf looking person was in the trailers (we had told her that Gandolf was really dead) we said that it was Gandolfs evil twin brother, Rudolf, who had come to take his place. It was very very funny!

BeardofPants · 12-23-2002, 12:36 AM

Yep, trainers are sneakers.

I can't remember where I saw them... somewhere around Fangorn, I think.

***Khamûl*** · 12-23-2002, 01:08 AM

Oh, trainers are sneakers. I see...

You don't want to know what I thought you meant by that. Let's just say that I thought it had to do with the very old and the very young and leave it at that.

I'll have to look out for that next time I see it.

BeardofPants · 12-23-2002, 01:49 AM

You were thinking of Gandalf in incontinence pants?! *Splutter*

Arathorn · 12-23-2002, 01:58 AM

Oh so that's why I couldn't see 'em. I was looking a bit higher up.

Well, the thought had crossed my mind.

I don't know if this is a mistake or not. The movie shows pippin and merry seeing gandalf before gimli, legolas , and aragorn. Surely they must have said "Gandalf!!! you are alive!!" or something like that. But when Legolas, Gimili, and Aragorn call him Gandalf he seems not to remember that that is his name. Logically he would have just been called that.

I noticed this too. Treebeard brought Mary and Pippin to see Gandalf to figure out what kind of creatures they were. But then after that supposed meeting, Treebeard consulted with the other ents and "decided" that the two hobbits were not orcs. And then when Gandalf met up with the other three, he was alone and unsure of his identity. Seems like the meeting between Mary and Pippin and Gandalf was intended to be cut out. The subsequent scenes made it look that way.

Elvedans · 12-23-2002, 04:11 PM

Wasn't Shadowfax the wrong colour? I didn't notice the trainers, i was too wrapped up in the plot. After it finished i could only think of one thing - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! !!!!!!
THAT WAS AMAZING!!! I think everyone is too picky.
P.S My fave bit was when Frodo was about to kill Sam - Cry Cry Cry!

Diaxion · 12-23-2002, 04:34 PM

I thought Isengaurd( spelling) was white

Fred Baggins · 12-23-2002, 06:22 PM

I saw a major one! When the hores rears and almost lands on Pippin, Pip's hands are unbound. Then Pippin crawls over to a sword and cuts the ropes that wheren't there the scene before.

Sminty_Smeagol · 12-23-2002, 11:54 PM

LOL s/h Khamul on the Trainer thingy... I wasn't sure enough to voice my answer though LOL

I noticed something though it may have been mentioned... in the scene at the black gate when sam falls off the cliff and frodo uses his cloak thingy to cover them... it shows them looking out beneath the cloak and seeing the warrior's feet. Then it shows Frodo whipping up the cloak... with the edges buried in to the gravel. Ok then???

squinteyedsoutherner · 12-24-2002, 02:15 PM

in the Rohan stable Gandalf says:

" the grey pilgrim, that is what they used to call me. For 300 lives of men I have walked this earth and now I have no time"

If the average life span of a man is 50, that would mean Gandalf is saying 15 000 years. The fact that the statement begins with the "grey pilgrim" term would lead me to believe that he is thus refering to his time in Middle Earth (I don't believe he was known as the grey pilgrim in Valinor). I don't see how this could be correct?

1) When Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimili, and Legolas are walking into the stable at Rohan, and Gandalf says ' On the morning of the 5th day look to the East, (or something along the lines of that) Aragorn nods and says something that sounds a lot like 'K'.(an abreviation for okay) This doesn't sound very Middle-Earthy to me...
....

Now that I have seen the movie for a third time, I think that this is incorrect, I think Aragorn said GO, not K. I could be mistaken though.
The one about Gandalf wearing 'trainers' (I hope that means sneakers?!' is not right I think. I know that during the scene when you first see shadowfax running up the hill, his shoes look a lot like sneakers. But then during the scene at Edoras, when Gandalf hooked arms with Legolas, he is wearing white leather mocasin (sp?) slipper things. I thin kthat these might just have looked like sneakers because of the angle we see him during the shadowfax scene. (The slippers do lace up with leather string stuff, wich might have looked ike shoelaces)
My friend noticed the mistake with Pippin's bonds being gone, and then him cutting then in the next scene.

squinteyedsoutherner · 12-24-2002, 09:01 PM

I have the entire movie on my computer from one of the file sharing sites. Eowyngirl 14 you are correct on both accounts. Aragorn definitely says go, and what everyone thinks are sneakers are really part of gandalf's costume. It's some kind of lace up shoe. I always imagined boots myself, but whatever they are supposed to be, it is intentional. In fact, when Saruman goes flying after Gandalf casts him out of Theoden it looks as though he has the same footware. They must have been big that year.

Seton,Lothlorien Guardian · 12-24-2002, 09:08 PM

The only mistake I could find was that gandalf had an elven brooch,, however.. Maybe after he slewed ( he he a new word) the balrog and after he was sent back to the Earth he appeared in LothLorien or went there for one reason or another..

Is Gandalf's sword Glamdring or Orcrist?
Anyways thats some sweet non-meltable metal

Nariel · 12-25-2002, 12:53 AM

bsides the PJ wording and plot mistakes (Elves at Helm's deep GRRRR), I found an editing mistake-- In the Helm's deep scene, there is an Elf who keeps loading his bow and firing, but never does a single arrow come out of his quiver, nor are there any arrows firing from his bow. He must be practicing his load-timing, but in the middle of a battle??? Serves him right. He shouldn't have been there to begin with. Hey, What was the name of that Elf who was in charge of the Elves? I listened, but couldn't quite catch it.

Sminty_Smeagol · 12-25-2002, 11:56 AM

It was Haldir wasn't it? From Lothlorien? And... were those Lothlorien elves? it sounded like lothlorien music. That music rocked!

Nariel · 12-25-2002, 12:21 PM

I thought they said something about being affiliated with Elrond. Maybe they were Lorien Elves. But now that I think of it, it was Haldir. I thought I recognized him

samwise of the shire · 12-25-2002, 03:03 PM

Did anybody notice the cut above Merry's eye? It was there during the battle scene but when they ran into Fangorn and met Treebeard there wasn't a sign of it anywhere. Not a scar or blood or anything.
Cheers,
Sam
