... errrr... 'Arwen' takes him back on the road? errr... not in the BOOK. So, what are you talking about?

And the wraiths didn't see him at the ferry in the book either. But they did in the movie. I was clearly talking about the movie.

I said they never came into contact with him AFTER the Ford

That wasn't clear in your quote. Thank you for clarifying.

It wasn't shot out from under him

I said it was nearly shot out from under him.


The Ringwraiths know where the Ring is after they come into contact with Frodo, I agree; but how, then, would they know where Frodo was after they lost contact at Osgilliath?

I hope so.

The Ringwraith was still able to fly. I doubt it would have gone far from Osgiliath. Jackson made it where he was easily frightened away. Not really a great tool of the enemy like Tolkien made them out to be.

I just watched TTT again this weekend for the first time since it was in the theatres. I enjoyed watching it, though I still thought it was kind of long (i.e. "when is this movie going to be over for goodness sake?!") My dad was funny. He read and enjoyed the book and also the Hobbit but it was a long time ago. So long that I wondered if he even remembered who the heck Frodo was. Anyway he kept saying things like "I wanna see more of the tree people!" and "scary!". I was kind of surprised, when Eowyn kept saying how much she wanted to fight, dad was like "Do as you're told!" It was kind of funny. So yeah I guess nothign I said has anything to do with the conversation right now...

You have something to offer all right, that was hilarious! Your dad offers interesting insight. I also wanted to see more 'tree people', I thought the Ents camera time was a little too short. For Ents, they were pretty darn hasty.

Actually, in the book the hobbits see a dark, crouching shape snuffling around on the bank as they take the ferry across. It's possibly a nazgul (At one time I thought it might be gollum), and the movies just exaggerate that.
