I believe Gandalf knows the large Eagles (Rocs, the seem to be) from "The Hobbit" when he crossed the Misty Mountains.

In The Fellowship, Gandalf communicated with a moth to hitch a ride from the Roc. In this film, the moth was shown right befor the Rocs appeared.

Rocs are very, very powerful. The Dragons that the Nazul fly are most definately menacing and have nice jaws, but they are carrying the Nazgul on their backs. It's like how I feel a wild horse would be able to beat on a horse with a guy on the back (assuming the guy is doing nothing). Also, the dragons are a little smaller, and the Rocs catch them off guard.

Err, Birds of prey are by no means pansies. The Rocs were a little bigger than the dragons, I believe... and anyone here know that birds can take out snakes?

Anywho, I agree about the woman thing. I disliked the fact that she could use a one-handed sword and lop off the dragon's head in one blow... which was AFTER she managed to dodge it's attack despite her heavy gear (shield, helm, sword, and body armor). The little feminist remark was funny too... expected...
I do, however, hold more respect for her after seeing her somehow take out the lord of all Nazgul. *sigh*

The lava thing... yeah, I find that hilarious. They went through freezing mountains but could take the lava with ease.

Oh well.
