Oh yeah! *slaps forhead*
Yes... so anyway, funny that one actor did the same two voices, of characters that had dialogue together. John Rhys-Davies did Treebeard and Gimli, but they don't speak in the movie. Or did they? The movie really confuses me, even though I re-read the book only a few weeks ago!

Seems like there were some other allusions, but... The one scene with Aragorn and Arwen in FotR looks just like an old painting of Arthur and Guenevere

#1) I was thinking the exact same thing when I watched the movie. #2) He sounded a hell of a lot like Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget. #3): I also thought he looked like the Goonies freak too much. He didn't look like an Orc at all. He should've been dark-skinned IMO, all the other Uruks and Orcs were. Did his momma procreate with an Elf or man, is that why he's so light-skinned?

Hey Durin1...
Why'd you think Gollum's voice was terrible?? I think it was right on especially when he coughs and makes that "Gollum" sound...just the way I imagined it to be even when I was reading the books...

Actually, I thought many of the scenes between Arwen and Aragorn in Rivendell reminded me of the paintings of Maxfield Parrish. (He was a very popular artist in the mid-twentieth century. He was famous for idealized scenes of fairies and such and was noted for his use of a particular shade of blue in the skies he painted, which became known as "Parrish blue.") Has anyone else noticed the similarity?
