<B>Estel</B>, your news of Wormtongue's death has brought a tear to my eye. I cannot believe that Legolas will (almost certainly) kill Wormtongue. It sounds terrible.<P>The only thing worse would be to have Eowyn, Eomer or Theoden kill him. Having Legolas kill him completely ruins the notion of a sad, pathetic figure suffering a hopeless death. I fear this is going to turn into basic Hollywood-style revenge and that cinema-goers everywhere will cheer when he dies.
