I loved Sam, his character was perfect. Hopefully the movie fans who see him as "the fat gay hobbit" (I do know a few who think that, unfortunately) will shed that opinion of him after they see this movie. Sam was a friend in the truest, purest sense and gave the impression that he not only stood by his promise to Gandalf to never leave Frodo's side, but also stood by his heart. And yes, seeing his wedding was a very nice thing- we at least got to see one of the weddings!
