Is Thrain missing his eye in the Erebor sequence? It sure looks like it. If so, how did he lose it? In the appendix Tolkien tells us that he lost it in the Battle of Azanubizar. What do you think? And is Radagast wearing two different shoes?

they wanted him to have a recognizable physical characteristic from the start, in order to not confuse the audience

aka. fili orc-enshield
+++++++++++++++++++
the scene, as i understand it, is exceptionally well-written. fili (in sort of a callback to the scene with the eagles), calls out "thorRIIIIIIN!!!" just as he sees the pale orc veer in for the kill. he picks up the severed arm of an orc which is lying on the ground, swings it up in desperation, effectively blocking the pale orc's blow. and thus, forever after, fili is known as "fili orc-enshield."
this earns him deep respect from his hard-to-please uncle. as well as a hug. kili wipes his boots on the pale orc's glory box. -- maciliel

They ultimately went with the eye injury visible, probably because he would look less like a pirate! That, and a dwarf would want everyone to see he had a war wound.
