I am a huge fan of the Lord of the Rings series. Despite the incredible effort the crew put into these movies, there were of course a few goofs that ended up in them!
Something that always made me curious - the main characters ride in on horseback to their final battle at the Gates of Doom. However, when they actually prepare to fight, all the horses have vanished. Did the men pat the horses on the rump, like with the pony of Bree, and send them home?
Eowyn seems to have a few problems with her famous fight with the Witch King. First, her helmet is strapped to her head, to keep it on. However, in her famous "I am no man!" statement, she whips off the helmet, which is now magically unfastened.
Next, even though the Witch King shatters her arm with a blow, and she cannot use it at all, she is able to push herself up with it only a few moments later.
Frodo's fingers are magical too. I still have the "Frodo of the Nine Fingers and the Ring of Dooooom" ringing through my head every time I think of this. The song is from the animated version of the movie. In any case, at the pub near the end, Sam is thinking about dating Rosie. Frodo appears to have all his fingers back again!
