Gandalf was wonderful in this movie, though I do miss Gandalf the Grey. And I do hope Gandalf will get more of a part in ROTK then he did in this movie.<P>I did think it was a bit strange how he hit Theoden on the head. I almost did laugh, after I got over my shock. It's just something in my family... when someone gets hit in the head. The scene in Chicken Run where the rooster hits the hen on the head flashed by, so maybe that was it...<P>There's not very much to say about Gandalf, as he didn't get a big enough part in the movie, but I'll say what more I can.<P>I loved how they did the flashback scene to him fighting the Balrog, though it was more Frodo's dream then a flashback. Actually... all the same, it WAS a flashback. <P>His appearance as Gandalf the White was truly amazing and wonderful. I felt a little queer when he came back, as though I was actually in the movie and my joy could not be told. It was as though I hadn't known for seven years that he did come back.<P>I was a bit disappointed they didn't have his, "Get up, you Tomfool of a Took," scene, but maybe in the extended edition?<P>~Nurumaiel
