I watch the movies pretty regularly and still love them, but I have a lot of gripes too.

The warfare scenes in particular annoy the shit out of me. Yeah, charge your horsemen STRAIGHT at the elephants! Don't bother trying to flank them on your nimble, fast steeds that could easily perform such a maneuver. No, run right at them where the elephant's defenses are strongest.

And at the end of the movie. Yeah, stand there and wait while you're completely surrounded by the enemy. Were they trying to buy time for Frodo by getting wiped out in five minutes? They had no idea he was that close to destroying it.

There are so many battles in the movie yet no one thought to hire a consultant on warfare? For fucks sake, I've read a few books on Chinese military history and strategy and I could have made a better consultant than that.
