When Éomer and company ambush the Uruk-hai, we see Pippin as he is almost trampled by a horse. When the shot cuts to Pippin, his arms are unbound and free as he moves to defend himself. When he rolls away, however, his hands are bound. See more »
Quotes
Sam:
Hey, Stinker! Don't go getting too far ahead.
Frodo:
Why do you do that?
Sam:
What?
Frodo:
Call him names, run him down all the time.
Sam:
Because... because that's what he is, Mr. Frodo. There's naught left in him but lies and deceit. It's the ring he wants; it's all he cares about.

Crazy Credits
Just like the previous "Lord of the Rings" movie, there are no opening credits after the title has been shown. See more »
From the beginning to the very end, the Lord of the Rings trilogy is interesting and enjoyable. The books and the movies alike grasp one's attention as if they were real. You, the reader or viewer, can sense the pain of the characters, their emotions. The trilogy is truly powerful on screen. The second movie, however, I believe has something the first and third are missing; it feels like a bridge connecting two great islands. There is something unique about it that cannot easily be described. Metaphorically, the first movie is, say, a soldier. The third movie is the path home from war. And the second movie is the act of coming home because it contains the obstacles that must be passed through before achieving the goal. Although not 100% loyal to the written trilogy, the movies are done in such a way that the mainstream audience and LOTR fans from before the movies came out can say they were enjoyable and well made.
