Things to ponder about after watching The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
1. When King Theoden gives his pep talk to the Riders of Rohan, (ie "Today, we fight!!"), how the heck do the people at the back hear him? There are 6000 smelly men and horses after all.
Theory: There's an unseen Middle Earth AVA Club somewhere which will raise the volume of the mic he's using.
2. When riding out of Rohan, notice that the riders ride on an extremely winding path out of the gate. Why cant they just have a nice straight path?
Theory: So that the audience can notice how many thousand men and horses there are! (But we already know there's 6000!)
3. Legolas has less than 10 lines throughout the whole movie, one of which is the absolutely unnecessary "a diversion!", which induced thoughts of "yes, we KNOW!" in mind.
Theory: Who needs him to talk when he's so handsome? He's just there to attract the girls.
4. Why does Frodo have to leave Middle Earth in the end?
Theory: He wants to try and escape from NS. Maybe he got enlisted into Commandos.
5. So, if Frodo's leaving Middle Earth, where is he going then?
Theory: You see, Middle Earth is only in the middle. So I suppose he may be going to either Left Earth, Right Earth, Up Earth or Down Earth, as long as its not in the middle. -grin-
