Humiliation of Gimli?
I watched the movie for the second time last week and figured I should probably also brush up on the books. While I was reading I started noticing how good of a fighter Gimli really was, beating even Legolas some of the time.(Orc competition,TTT)Yet in FotR it seems to me they kind of made Gimli seem unequal to any of the other Fellowship. He is even made to look silly alot of times, i.e. the beard thing in the mines, smashing his axe, being suprised by Galadriel's elves in the woods. I know that some of these are in the book, but I just thought he should have gotten more screen time to show his ability. Does anyone agree\disagree?
