I didn't know if this should go in the movies section or here. Anyway. I've come to relize how much the movies have had an influence on how we think about the LotR characters. Examples:

Legolas: pritty boy
Aragorn: a manly man who can't stand to take a bath

For some reason I don't think people thought of Legolas or Aragorn this way before the movies. If I'm wrong please tell me. Also, put up more examples if you can think of them.
