John son of Joe writes: I have always liked the detail that they put into all the swords in the movies, but when I saw the new teaser poster of Aragorn holding Narsil, I said “Hey, wait a minute. Narsil and Anduril are full two handed swords. And Aragorn isn’t holding a two handed sword.” [More]
I know this has been debated before, but John son of Joe sent this along and I had to post it:
I have always liked the detail that they put into all the swords in the movies, but when I saw the new teaser poster of Aragorn holding Narsil, I said “Hey, wait a minute. Narsil and Anduril are full two handed swords. And Aragorn isn’t holding a two handed sword.”
So I went out and got a teaser poster image and a shot of Narsil and over laid one on the other and low and behold, after I rezised them to match, I find that they cropped Anduril! That just ain’t right. I thought that those elves were good smiths. Guess they should have sent it back to the dwarves and had Telchar do it.

And Red Rocks is nationally renowned for its great acoustics so it’ll be a treat! Hope to see you there!
