Corrected entry: In the part where Boromir gets hit by arrows three times, you see the first arrow hit just below his shoulder. If you look closely, you can see the second arrow hit him in the same exact place as the first, and the first arrow has somehow disappeared. In the next shot you can see one arrow in his shoulder and one lower down, even though the second arrow looked as though it hit him in the shoulder. (01:23:15)

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
Corrected entry: For the most part, the height difference between Hobbits and Humans is very well done, but just after the fellowship is formed we see the members walking over the crest of a hill one by one. Just after Legolas walks over, a horse accompanied by at least one Hobbit follows, however the horse is at least as tall as Legolas was, and the Hobbit is at least as tall as the horse.
Correction: The "horse" is Bill the pony, so the hobbit would be the right size. The camera angle also changes between the time Legolas passes and the hobbits pass, quite possibly to make it hard to gauge differences in height.

Correction: I checked in slow motion, and the second arrow does NOT hit him in the shoulder. That arrow is already there when the second hits, although the sequence is very fast and it could seem like he jerks from the arrow already in his shoulder.
