Battle for Middle earth
(
1 2
)
(Preview)
Anyone played this game? I find it very detailed and fun but the new game that has come out - Battle for Middle-earth 2 far outstrips it. I like the new idear of controlling your own command points in skirmish - that was the biggest drawback on the first game.
What are your thoughts?

Search for mistakes in the movies
(Preview)
Everyone makes mistakes even great film makers like Peter Jackson, so lets start a challenge to find as many mistakes as we can in the Lord of the rings trilogy films. Note: mistakes pertain to things that affect the realism of the film not its differences from the book

Animations
(Preview)
Has anyone else seen the Rankin & Bass Animations of The Hobbit and Return of the King? Has anyone else seen the Bakshi animation that was done of the Fellowship of the Ring and part of the Two Towers? My apologies. I confused the names of the producers in my earlier post. -- Edited by Celethil at 20:14, 20...

Witchking of Angmars height
(Preview)
How come when they Witchking stabs Frodo on weathertop he is about the same height as Aragorn but when he duels with Eowyn on the feilds of Pellenor he is about 18" taller than her. Perhaps you can alter your size depending on your mood in the Wraith world?

Sense of direction
(Preview)
In the Movie:
"The Uruks turn Northeast - they are taking the hobbits to Isengard!" shouts Legolas.
Now this has nothing to do with PJ making a Tolkien knowledge mistake.
If Aragorn, gimli and Legolas have been persuing the Uruk-hai south west from Amon hen, why would the Uruks be turning North...

First you see Gandalf is able to, more or less, drive them away with his staff, by sending a ray of light... But then you see The Witch King abliverate his staff later on... -both from the Lo...

Gollum's song at dead marshes
(Preview)
In the film the two towers, i noticed that Gollum sang a song in the Dead Marshes, just before one of the Nazgul fly over them upon a fell beast. It sounded like a smaller version of this.
"Cold be hand and heart and bone, and cold be sleep under stone: never more to wake on stony bed, never, till the...

Theoden, Whos' your favorite.
(Preview)
I think Theoden is one of my favorite "supporting" characters. He is saved by Gandalf from a base existence, and showed his kindness with his intereactions with Merry. He then goes on to defend his people as best he knows how at Helm's Deep, and in the end finds a personal redemption i...
