“The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers” Goofs List
- Continuity: The length of the chain in which Frodo carries the ring changes throughout the film
- Continuity: Near the end of the film, when Frodo and Sam are in Osgiliath, the chain around Frodo’s neck with the ring on repeatedly switches between being caught around one of his buttons and hanging freely between shots.
- Continuity: When Gandalf the White first enters Theoden’s hall, the position of his staff changes from being held perpendicular to the ground to being held parallel between shots. Director Peter Jackson noticed this error for the first time while recording the Director’s Commentary for the Extended Edition of the DVD.
- Continuity: (Flipped shot) When Legolas says in Elvish, “There’s something out there,” the Elvish Brooches (leaf brooches holding their cloaks together) are facing the opposite direction. Peter Jackson first noticed this error while recording the Extended DVD Director commentary.
- Continuity: When Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are entering Theoden’s throne room for the first time, Gandalf turns quickly around when the doors close but in the next shot his head is centered.
- Continuity: Aragorn’s sword disappears from his hand shortly before he falls off his horse, but reappears in its scabbard later.
- Continuity: When Treebeard is talking to Merry and Pippin at the Entmoot, the stars that can be seen behind him change.
- Continuity: The gash on Merry’s face changes sides throughout the movie. Sometimes it is on his left brow, sometimes on the right.
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Saruman is talking to the Uruk-Hai, they are obviously screaming and yelling, but there is no noise coming from them.
- Continuity: Gandalf’s horse “Shadowfax” is obviously played by at least two different horses in the movie, as different markings can be seen on the horses.
- Continuity: Aragorn’s beard repeatedly changes length between shots in King Theoden’s hall.
- Continuity: Merry and Pippin switch position between shots when Merry is making his speech to Treebeard at the Entmoot.
- Continuity: When Frodo, Sam, and Gollum are in the Dead Marsh and the Nazgul flies over, Frodo goes after the ring with his left hand, which Sam grabs and holds. Frodo is then shown putting his right hand to his chest, but in the wide shot, his right hand is still lying at his side.
- Continuity: In the storeroom where Sam is suggesting that Frodo use the Ring to escape, Frodo is initially sitting in front of a barrel. When Faramir arrives, Frodo and Sam are sitting on a cloak and there are no barrels in sight.
- Continuity: When Gimli enters Helm’s Deep for the first time, he speaks to Eowyn about Aragorn’s fate. Before she speaks, Gimli’s helmet is on and his axe is covered in blood. After she speaks, his helmet is off and his axe is clean.
- Continuity: In the battle at Helms Deep, when Aragorn unsheathes his sword, the shot is reversed (he draws it left-handed when he is right-handed).
- Continuity: When Legolas is pulling Gimli and Aragorn to safety using the rope during the battle of Helm’s Deep, Gimli is on Aragorn’s right side for every shot except the first close-up of Aragorn in Gimli, where he is clearly on Aragorn’s left.
- Continuity: When Legolas shoots the rope of one of the big ladders, the previous shot has already shown the ladder to be past straight vertical position. The ladder should continue it’s arc towards the wall, but instead it falls back.
- Continuity: When the main characters are standing on the cliff looking out towards Mordor, you can see Helm’s Deep over their shoulders. The hole in the wall from the gunpowder is conspicuous by its absence.
- Crew or equipment visible: A small gas pipe, leading to one of the large torches outside the Golden Hall, is briefly visible in some scenes in Edoras.
- Revealing mistakes: When Shadowfax first appears, there are tracks across the paddock behind and to the right of him. Some say these are tire tracks, others argue that they could just as easily be the wheel ruts of a farm cart. In response, the first group say that the ruts are too far apart to be from a farm cart, and the space in between is too narrow, meaning that they are definitely those of a car or truck. You decide.
- Continuity: Legolas’ eyes are brown for the majority of the battle of Helm’s Deep, instead of their customary blue. However, it is reported that this particular color change came about when Orlando Bloom’s blue contact lenses were forgotten during some of the shooting for this sequence.
- Revealing mistakes: In the beginning of the movie, when Frodo and Sam are walking on the rocky mountain their rubber artificial feet can be clearly seen flapping around.
- Continuity: When Faramir is holding Sam and Frodo in Osgiliath, and is about to let them go, the shot of the Hobbits is reversed (leaf brooches face the wrong way).
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: In the initial shot when Theoden is talking to Gamling on the wall outside Helm’s Deep, Gamling’s mouth is moving like he’s replying to Theoden’s orders but no sound is heard.
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: When the Rohirrim surround Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli at the beginning, you can see Eomer’s lips moving in one of the wider shots and he obviously talks to the three but there is no sound coming out of his mouth.
- Continuity: When the Rohirrim surround Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli and Eomer starts talking to them, the sunlight changes direction and intensity.
- Continuity: When Merry and Pippin are dropped to the ground by the Uruk-Hai, Merry is lying very close to Pippin. In the next shot Pippin is obviously a few feet away for he has to crawl closer to Merry to be able to talk to him
- Continuity: When the Merry and Pippin are first seen being carried by the Uruk Hai, they are behind each other. In the next shot they are being carried beside each other.
- Continuity: After the Rohirrim surrounding Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli are about to leave, you can just make out Eomer’s sword falling out of its sheath. It can be seen in the next shot.
- Continuity: The position of Legolas’ quiver changes from one side to the other and then back again in Fangorn forest.
- Continuity: When Aragorn is tracking the hobbits beside Fangorn forest, his ring is on his right hand. Later, when the “White Wizard” is approaching the ring has switched to his left hand.
- Continuity: Pippin’s hands are tied, but when he falls under the horse, his hands are untied and apart. When Aragorn is working out what happened we see, in the flashbacks, that Pippin did not cut his bonds until after the horse incident.
- Miscellaneous: When Eomer mounts his horse after talking with Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli his sword fall out of its scabbard (look over Aragorn’s right shoulder).
- Incorrectly regarded as goofs: During Arwen’s vision of Aragorn’s (eventual) death, Aragorn’s fingers do not move on his sword as many, many people have suggested – they are Arwen’s fingers.
- Continuity: When Sam is telling Frodo to use the ring to escape Faramir, the light changes directions (from the left in the wide shot, from the right in the close-up).
- Continuity: In the “dream sequence” where Aragorn remembers his time with Arwen prior to embarking on the quest to destroy the ring they embrace and kiss. As they do so, Aragorn’s left hand is alternately on her face/around her waist between shots.
- Continuity: (flipped shot) When Aragorn is tracking Merry and Pippin from the orc pyre to Fangorn Forest, his ring (usually on his left hand) is on his right forefinger and his glove (usually on his right) is on his left hand.
- Revealing mistakes: As Theoden, Aragorn and the others ride out of Hornborg at the end of the battle, when they ride down the “bridge”, one of the computer generated Orcs, on the side of the bridge that is closest to the camera, goes straight through one of the horses before he is thrown from the bridge. Also (and conversely), horsemen in the back of the column slash with their swords at invisible targets.
- Continuity: In Helms Deep, as Legolas throws the shield onto the stairs, he has his bow in his left hand. As he runs to jump onto the shield, the bow is gone. As he is sliding down the stairs, he is using the bow again.
- Continuity: When Frodo and Sam are hidden under the elvish cloak at the Black Gate, we can see from under the cape the feet of the enemy soldier through a gap in between the cloth and the floor. But in the next shoot when Frodo unfold the cape (that looks like a rock) we can see it was well buried in the dust and
