Oh, I certainly didn't catch everything! Some were pointed out to me by others on messageboards. But I think years of reading mystery books and filmed versions of them has made me pay attention to these sorts of "visual clues". If there's a discrepancy in Frodo's webbing, I assume it's because there used to be a scene in there that got cut and was never restored. But the "crumbs on his jacketses" scene was long-planned (I'll explain my theory when I ever get to the "Go Home Sam" screencaps), and the detail of the crumbs -- putting them there and pointing them out was intentionally done. This was something for which, I thought, there was no excuse for screwing up.
As for "Go Home Sam," you'll have a chance to vent in the future, when I get to the RotK caps. That'll be a while since I have a lot of TTT caps to present first. But the caps are made and in the hopper. It's a wrong-headed scene, very wrong-headed. But it does work in the film, as film, and is powerfully acted. How could it not make great screencaps, "whether or no"? :)
