Oh yeah, seeing Anduril, the flame of the West, will be a high point. I actually own a reproduction of Narsil, which I was enamoured with when I saw it in the movies. I thought the hilt was so totally awesome! It's like, three-handed.<P>Then I found that there would be alterations to the design for Anduril. Oh well, it's still a great show piece.<P>But I really don't think it could have had more air time in TTT - what place would it have? And I liked it in FotR. I'm actually glad Aragorn didn't carry it around like Tolkien had it - he was a Ranger, in need of a functioning sword! He wouldn't carry the priceless heirloom of Isildur around in the Wild, after all!
