Movie backgrounds

Many viewers reported that they spotted a car in the background of the
theatrical version when Sam says that he is now the furthest he has ever
been from home. Director Peter Jackson in a 1 December 2003 Newsweek article
confirms the presence of a car, seen in the theatrical release of the movie.
The DVD versions reveal no such car, because it was subsequently removed
digitally. Jackson says: "We actually didn't know about the car until we
were cutting the movie. The smoke and dust wasn't so bad because there was
already lots of it around, but the bloody windshield was reflecting the sun
back into the camera lens. So we erased it for the DVD. I think some people
were upset because they tried to show it to their friends and it was gone."
