Trivia
At one point in the film's development, studio executives thought that the names "Saruman" and "Sauron" were too similar, and would confuse the audience, and decided that Saruman should be renamed "Aruman". This decision was eventually reversed, but some references to "Aruman" remain in the finished film. See more »Goofs
Continuity: In Rivendell when you first see Bilbo he is stood reciting poetry, while the other four hobbits walk into the room. In one frame you see Frodo sat in a corner playing a harp, then it returns to him entering with the other hobbits and it is an elf playing the harp. See more »
