Argonath statues wrong direction
Well guys, I have a look upon the Argonath statues(Isildur&Anarion) on TATW strat map, and they are placed in wrong direction(faced south). According to Tolkiens texts (and movie too) they were Gondor border-monuments faced to the boats sailing down the Anduin river from the North. Jackson's movie gives us the same picture : fellowsip's boats coming from the North meet their faces, not backs

They did that on purpose so you could see how they actually look( instead of seeing their backs:p)

Too bad we can't have the Falls of the Rauros
That would, together with Amon Hen and the Argonath, be epic.
