When the White Witch sends her wolves to Mr. Beaver's house, why doesn't
she tell them to stay silent to avoid warning the Beavers and Edmund's
siblings?

Just before the great battle, we see 3 giants arriving with the Witch's
army. However, we don't see them during the battle itself. Why weren't
the 3 giants seen during the battle? For example, they could have
thrown the rocks dropped by the griffins back at Peter's army, or simply
stepped on Peter's troops.

I can never figure out if you really have such questions, expecting
them
to have definite if unknown answers, or if you are merely observing
things you consider to be directorial oversights in a rather obnoxious
way.

Would "it was the director's fault" ease your mind and relieve us of
the
torment of tiny movie nitpicks treated as a matter worth such serious
delibaration?

A directorial goof would explain the absence of the giants from the actual
battle, but wouldn't excuse the wolves' stupidity in warning their prey
(Peter, Susan, Lucy, and the Beavers) that they were coming!

Another issue: Why did Peter start off the battle by signaling his troops
to....yell at the White Witch's troops? Why not start off the battle by
signalling the griffins to start their rock dropping run right away, rather
then waste time and energy yelling?

It seems to me that not telling the wolves to stay silent was a major blunder
on the witch's part, and also those 3 giants not being used in the battle.

Just a few minutes before the White Witch and Edmund depart her castle
in pursuit of Peter et al, she has Tumnus led out the dudgeon he shared
with Edmund. She then brings Edmund to the courtyard where he sees the
statue of Tumnus, with snow already on it. She and Edmund then depart
the castle into a sunny day. How did the statue of Tumnus get snow on
it in just a few minutes on a sunny day?
