i thought that the director dude admitted there was, but it was edited out for the DVD version.. i could be wrong though.

Its not on the extended edition dvd, it was edited out, though suppossedly it was on the original theatrical release

LMAO! thanks for that, now i can finally tell people i seen it. i didn't know it would be so small, but i guess the director would of seen if it was bigger. thats kinda funny tho

At this posting it is as yet unclear whether this celebrated gaffe has been removed from the August 6 DVD release of the film. I rather hope it hasn't. I like to pretend that what we're seeing is a Black Rider, speeding up the road to Hobbiton, unaware that he is passing his prey in the field to his left!
good god go outside.

I've been reading a lot of your posts, you have absolutely nothing good to say. Ever. I'd like it if you'd cal the hell down. This is the internet, people have to be inside. Sometimes it's their livelyhood. Stop with the rude comments.

Oh noes! A 5 second shot of a barely seen car spoils 10 hour movie expirience. Two LOTR nerds, in anger and disbelieve, riot a local filmclub. Peter Jacksons confirms the release of an extra special extended edition DVD that fixes the problem and makes watching the movie much more pleasurable. Thousands of fans rush to buy new DVD.

Seriously though. So there's a car, what's the big deal?

    • XBOX is at the end of its generational life cycle and wasn't selling much anyway. They need to figure out the pricing for XBOX Helios. However, I'm not buying the DRAM shortage with AI preferring HBM. I think it's industry gouging.
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026: Best Dolby soundbar deals from Sony, Samsung, JBL, Polk, and more by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered the JBL BAR 800 which is a 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos/Vision soundbar. The unit is on sale for its lowest ever price of just $800 making it a solid offer. However, there are many more options to choose from and in this article, we have made a compilation of the best deals including from Sony, Polk, Yamaha, Denon, Samsung and more. Sony's BAR models are currently at their lowest prices which makes them solid offerings. The company's BRAVIA Theatre Bar lineup is designed to suit different home cinema needs. The Bar 5 is an entry-level 3.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, supporting Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, S-Force PRO Front Surround, and Vertical Surround Engine for immersive audio with clear dialogue. The Bar 6 upgrades to a 3.1.2-channel configuration by adding dedicated up-firing speakers for more convincing overhead Atmos effects while retaining the wireless subwoofer. At the premium end, the Bar 7, Bar 8, and flagship Bar 9 are single-soundbar solutions featuring Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, which creates phantom speakers for a wider surround field. Bar 7 includes nine speaker units, Bar 8 increases this to eleven, and Bar 9 offers thirteen speaker driver units promising the most expansive soundstage and acoustic performance. All models should integrate seamlessly with compatible BRAVIA TVs and support the BRAVIA Connect app for setup and control.
