Alli writes:: If you didn't notice before, all of them are WAIST DEEP IN THE SNOW!!! Except for Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippen, and Gimli. They are being carried. Plus, Legolas is the only one on top of the snow and then there are footprints!!!!; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

Veronica writes:: It was too high up for them to see the footprints because they're so small.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

Happy TJ writes:: If you watch real closely, you'll see that it's *gasp* snowing! It's snowing heavily. That snow would cover any tracks made.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

George writes:: It is snowing quite a lot, maybe the footprints were covered up.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

Lord Voldemort writes:: That is because it was snowing so fast and so hard that the footprints were almost immediately covered up. The storm was no regular storm. It was like the snow was "aimed" at them.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

MoonBaby writes:: Alli's right. It shows a shot where you can see from overhead and there are tracks behind them where they dug through the snow. And there are footprints on top of the snow from Legolas.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

cheerleaderchs writes:: As stated before, they were IN the snow and it was SNOWING. Please take into consideration, even without those conditions, Legolas would not have left footprints. If you read the books you would know that elves walk lightly and are able to not leave footprints if need be.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

Gobrianna writes:: I see footprints in all the scenes except one, the very first snow scene before it starts to snow. But since yes, it's an overhead shot and we're watching from pretty high up, I don't think we can see the footprints. Thinking this slipup through, how could it be possible after all? They didn't just drop the actors from a helicoptor. They had to actually be walking through snow for a little while at least. If that shot was done on computer, surely the animators wouldn't forgot something as obvious as footprints in snow!; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?
