Hahaha, you're right, 'the sword of Elendil' bit was the only thing I understood from his speech, and I hung on that. I stand corrected, Helen, thanks for quoting that passage from the book. But I still...oh well, I still find it a bit annoying. Something makes me think 'webcam'. (Like "Sauron, now we can finally see each other - so let me show you my new sword.") Yes I know I am a technologically-perverted creature that Tolkien would probably frown upon.
Of course Saruman attacking Gandalf from above is so unreasonable and out of character that I didn't even think to mention it.
But all in all I expected such minor flaws and they don't minimize my enthusiasm one bit. I can hardly wait - I'll start saving money (and hope it's not more than 100 $ as I'm only a poor beggining teacher...)
