I was thinking about the setting for the Council of Elrond in the movie and the way Elrond (at least) seemed a bit put out when extra hobbits started "coming out of the woodwork" so to speak. Well they had that council on the porch where any Tourist Guy could just wander by:

But when I went back to the book I saw that indeed it did take place on the porch. I guess they don't need no stinking security in Rivendell!

You know, there's something wrong with that picture...wasn't Frodo sitting next to Gandalf? Where's his chair?
