<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Legolas shoots an arrow at Grima (who's probably ontop of Orthanc after throwing Saruman off of the tower), & Grima laughs at Legolas's seeming inaccresy when the arrow soars over Grima Wortounge's head. All of a suddent the arrow comes plummeting down & crashes through Grima's skull. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I really hope this is not how Grima meets his end, simply for the reason that it would make Legolas seem cruel, harsh, unthinking, etc. etc. (showoff!) Then again, I wished that Theoden had given Grima the chance to serve in battle as in the book TTT, but I suppose some finer points must be sacrificed for the film to work...<P>I did notice that, at the end of the movie FOTR, Legolas is hurrying to get the boat into the water to follow Frodo and Sam, never thinking that perhaps they ought to be thinking about Merry and Pippin and the Orcs taking them to Isengard. Another "thoughtless" Legolas moment (or maybe just impulsive), but I put it down to chaos and expedience. I know Legolas isn't like that! <P>Cheers,<BR>Lyta
