[Imladris]

I must be a bit odd. Whenever I read anything, people are very hazy and I have only a "fuzzy" vision of them, no matter how well they are described (it is the opposite with land). So watching PJ's version of LotR has helped me. Like Elijah Wood fits my hazy vision of Frodo. Thankfully, PJ has dispelled my former vision of elves that I retained from the animated hobbit.

I do not believe that anyone who has seen the movie first and then read the books will be permanently stuck with the "PJ image". Maybe on the first and second and third reads, but gradually the images will fade and Tolkien's image will replace them to an extent.
