But I will admit there is a point where my own imagination would take over and the professor's opinion would be second. I wonder if there is anyone else who feels this way....

I don't really feel this way about anything M-e related, but (also going along with one of Child's examples) it is my belief that if you don't like the ending to a story, there is nobody to say that you cannot make up your own. To continue this idea, I conclude that none of this "really" matters. I don't think that Balrogs were "supposed to" (i.e.: according to what Tolkien wrote) have wings, yet all the images I see of them are wingéd. So sometimes in my mind they have wings, and sometimes they don't. Usually I'm not thinking about Balrogs, so this is an internal debate which I fortunately must face only rarely.
