I simply adored the conversation about the the fairer (umm...or maybe not ) sex of the dwarfs.<P>Gimli as a comic relief: Not a bad idea. Say what you will, but the audience absolutely needs someone they can laugh at sometimes. But yes, it should've have been done a bit more tactfully. Now it was a little too much "hey, here comes the funny dwarf-guy again!"<BR>But I'll forgive that bit of lazyness, because on the whole Gimli is a well formed character. And - of course- John Rhyes-Davies rocks!
