In LotR there is one passage that always makes me if not laugh, then at least smile.
Quote:
'Dark ways, doubtless,' said Gimli, 'but no darker than these staves are to me.'
|
Or this one, also (suprisingly) by Gimli:
Quote:
'Since Gandalf's head is now sacred, let us find one that is right to cleave!'
|
But, though all my favourite comical parts involve Gimli, I think Jackson has made Gimli far too humorous a character. It takes all the point away of the comical part of Gimli's nature.. At least so it seems to me.
