Ian is good. They couldnt have picked a better person to play Gandalf. <P>But I just wanted to say that I dont like how they made beard and hair shorter. When he comes back as Gandalf The White he is supposed to be more powerful and wise than he was before. And I think of a beard and long hair as a symbol of being old and wise (and even power). So why would they cut his beard and hair instead of leaving it or even making it a little longer?
