Same here :) I guess that's what Makes The Lord of the Rings The Lord of the Rings hee hee.

Um....The Lord of the Rings is not made by what PJ chose to do or not to do. It's from what Tolkien chose to do. PJ bungled a lot of stuff--I'm just happy he didn't bungle a lot more. I didn't like the way the winding stairs were depicted in the movie--it just didn't seem like something the men of Numenor would've made, which they did.

I always believed that it was a natural stair made by mother nature :D

Actually I always believed that it was not actually a stair but the it was looking like one.

I think that would be too much of a coincidence--I'd say it was made by the men of Numenor, who built Minas Ithil/Morgul and Cirith Ungol.

That's what I think.

But I say it was an orc with a chisel.

Lol, SwedishMoose.

I just finished The Two Towers on Sunday (and I read The Return of the King yesterday), so I noticed that the stairs are fairly close to the main pass, but they are described as "unevenly spaced." That was something that I hadn't noticed before--it lends more credit to the idea that the stairs were not made by the Numenoreans, but perhaps by others. However, I still don't think PJ got them right for the movie.

I'm thinking they were once used for a shortcut. I know this doesn't make sense, but what if Shelob's lair was, like, an escape tunnel?
