Part 2...

BTW those stones are just naturally jointed. It is extremely common and entirely natural; as the formation gets "unloaded" (that is the material on top of it gets eroded away) pressure on the rocks decreases so they will naturally start decompressing ever so slightly causing a fairly regular system of jointing in the rocks. Natural weathering then expands those joints making it look exactly like the stupid pictures in the film.
