Hey everybody, stop calling Elrond creepy! He isn't!!! Elrond has always been my favourite character in the book and he still is after I saw the movie. Ok, I have to admitt that I was shocked when I heart that Hugo Weaving (who I adore much!) was supposed to play Elrond, cos I was afraid that everybody would think of Agent Smith only. Actually, many people did think of Agent Smith (I was told, when he said "You've but one choice", everybody expected him to add "Mr. Anderson!"), but nonetheless I think Mr. Weaving did a great job! Ok, Elrond was a bit bitter when he talked to Gandalf about the human race, but for god's sake, after some thousand years, allow him some sarcasm!!! And he looked like the perfect wise elf lord when he healed Frodo and did you see his mild smile when he talked to Sam at the end of the council? (This "It seems hard to seperate you from him, even..."- stuff). Damn, I adore Elrond, thanks to Hugo Weaving! <P>Vinya<P>P.S.: Sorry for the bad English, but I'm German and it's pretty late...<p>[ April 08, 2002: Message edited by: Vinyamarien ]
