    Budget? Some work got done one way. Plans changed and they intended to re-do it all a different way, but ran out of money.

  • Specuation: does the film ever make it clear that the Witch King is one of the Nazgul? I watched a youtube review (I don't think I can stomach the whole of that film), and noticed that he is referred to in one place as 'Sauron's second in command'. So maybe the Witch King is treated as a different entity to the Nazgul. Commented Aug 18, 2023 at 7:25
  • Both versions of the Nazguls' flying mounts might refer to the novels: Tolkien described the creatures as being survivors from an ancient time, and one of the early American paperback editions (The illegal edition) had a cover illustration of a Nazgul on a flying horse.
