[QUOTE]Originally posted by G.K Nimrod: [QB] Of course it wasn't fun, swordbattles are terrible. But they were very artistically created, all the characters were allowed to do their thing, Legolas with his bow, Gimli with the axe and Aragorn with brutal efficiency. I was glad when a reporter from a swedish movie-program interviewed Viggo Mortensen and he answered in danish! I never knew he still had ties with his homecountry, thought it was just the name. I loved the attention to detail, down to the golden leaf-buckles on their cloaks, and was sad for certain reasons. (mini-pseudo-spoiler) $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ The dialogue between Galadriel and Gimli that took place in the book at the parting of Lothlorien, when she was surprised at the audacity of Gimli's request, yet amused by it. She was much more sweet and gentle in the book, laughing in a maternal way when Frodo offered her the ring. Another thing, I think they made bilbo a bit [i]too[/i] terrible when being refused to touch the ring in Rivendell, he kind of scared the audience so much they never trusted him after that moment, always waitng for him to make another move. Had he done THAT in the book I think Frodo'd had much more difficult to save their relationship. But, of course, he proved a nice connection between the ring and Gollum's illness and state of mind. ------ Loved the Balrog, I was specifically keen on how they would portray it and was very satisfied. They could made Gandalf a little more mighty, like he became when Bilbo wouldn't give up the ring in Bagshot Row, what with his growing stature and deepening voice. I am very grateful that they incorporated Arwen. First I thought they would add her to the nine companions and fuck up the whole story, but this turned out very well. (spoiler ends) I hope they'll release the second movie in the summer so we don't have to wait a whole year between every episode... [/QB][/QUOTE]
