Whoa! This thread took a bad turn. Let me see if I can help it. As I see it, this is a read between the lines sort of scene. It is more obvious to those of us that have read the Appendixes, and... |

As I recall, Celeborn was rather stern with Gimli. It gave Galadriel an opportunity to speak of Gimli's people. It also explained the elf-dwarf hatred that was going on. I do hope they include more... |

I must agree that PJ probably was going for more action and less frivolity. It sells better in the long run. <BR>I surely will enjoy listening to Viggo sing/chant at the campfire before... |

How wonderful! TY on the translation of Nahar. I'll say one thing - that I cannot see that Tolkien in his creation of The Tenguar might have failed to study The Codecs(sic?) or ancient forms of... |
