Oh, and Connavar -- if you've not seen the extended versions of the films, you've been missing a lot. I couldn't stand the theatrical version of Fellowship, but I'm very fond of the extended version... much, much closer to Tolkien's vision in many ways, and they include heaps of the nice, subtle touches in the book as well.... |
Its a blessing then that i havent seen the extended version,making the book more fresh to me.
Alot of history is good IMO, so far i liked best when Gandalf was telling the history of the rings,Golloum etc to Frodo.
Heh now i wonder what "The Council of Elrond" is like
