Gollum
Gandalf/Ian McKellan, Smeagol/Andy Serkis, Strider-Aragorn/Viggo Mortensen. Oh, and Galadriel/Cate Blanchett, she looked a lot like what I thought Galadriel was like. And Shadowfax - the horse was spot on.

I have to go with Shelob.

Which was the one character I was worried about looking totally phony!

Well, it was a bit gross, personally I liked the spider in the HP movie better.

galadriel looked good (no pun intended), and shelob was good, and the trolls were all cool, but the black riders looked exactly the way i picture them.

what? you can't find a spare staff? i'm pretty sure gandalfs got a extra that he always keeps in case of emergencys like needing to throw things at computers

What gandalf should carry is extra batteries for the spot light thing that drives away nazgul

Why? They were really intimidating...especially for what they could fit into PG.

Boromir was very well casted and costumed. He looked very similar to how I pictured him.

The outfit that ran the convention has extra signed autographed photos and I'm considering Gimli as I think his character was the most human.

well i think shadowfax was dead on what i imagined and galadriel too but NOT shelob...im terrified of spiders...i loved the black riders...i imagined them to be what they looked like in the movie except a few of the horses they were riding were brown but hey you cant be perfect all the time right?
