Gwaihir the Windlord has just left Hobbiton.

The problem with those who come through the movies is that they don't have a damned clue about anything. How could they? Thank God I'd read and understood the books years before the movies appeared on the scene. You need to get a grip on the true thing; the movies alone are nothing, a simplified and much-abridged edition of one tale.

EDIT: Hmmm.

Ok, for the purposes of this thread before I go (no more time to make a big reply I'm afraid), the quote:

This tells you a lot about Elves and their nature. They are mighty and fair on Earth, but not much further, either outwards or into the future. They didn't, however, all have blond hair.
