<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Since the movies I have this total Merry-and-Pippin obsession, becuase Dom and Billy ROCK so badly! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I totally agree. I loved their characters in all of the books, and Billy and Dom just played them so well. Yes, they rock! Dom especially made me look at Merry's character closer, because usually people think of them as MerryandPippin and one personality (a bit like Samneric) Merry can sometimes be overshadowed. He has a sense of fun and humor but is a little more sensible than Pippin, and I get the impression that he thinks a lot. I really like Merry, and I like how Dom plays him. And as for Pippin, we all adore that adorable Took!<BR>Legolas didn't make much of an impression in the book, and although Orlando Bloom was good he didn't really rock my socks. I'm a hobbit lover at heart. <BR>Ian Holm made me more interested in Bilbo. I think he was a great Bilbo, and then I read the Hobbit and just fell in love with him. He's such a great little character!<BR>
