Quote:<BR>And for my last misgiving about the elves, I didn't like the actor for Elrond. He looked old and bald. Elrond does not look old.<P>At the first, I didn't like Elrond either, I thought he was looking angry all of the time. Now that I've seen it four times, I realized, that he's just looking worried. And remember, he's half human. That has to make a difference!<P>Quote:<BR>I am only really disappointed that we didn't get to see her Ring. You can see it briefly as she waves good-bye to the Fellowship, but we see only the band on the palm side of her hand, and if you haven't read the book, you might think it was a wedding band, if you noticed it at all.<P>Quote:<BR>I would have liked to see her ring a bit more and the gift giving.<P>Quote:<BR>And i wanted to see Nenya; made of mithril and had a white stone with a soft, flickering light on Galadriel. And i couldnt' see it at all in the movie.<P>It's right, Nenya is not seen in Lorien, but at the beginning, when Galadriel tells the story of the Ring, it's there. She says something like "Three were given to the Elves" and she and two other Elves (Cirdan and Gil-Galad?) are holding up some rings on their fingers. Galadriel's in front with Nenya right in front of the camera.<P>*Mele
