Gorwingel has just left Hobbiton.
1420!

The films are pretty similar to the way I imagined Middle Earth when I read the books. But the only differences I mainly had when I read the books were Lorien, and the Dead Marshes. Lorien I thought was going to be brighter, it was very dark in the film. The main thing I think about when I think of Lorien is when they talk about how in the fall, the leaves turn gold, but then they don't fall off. So I imagined all these trees with gold leaves, but I did not see that in the films. Also another thing in Rivendell, I wish they would have shown the Hall of Fire, I think that would have been very impressive and cool.
The Dead Marshes I thought were going to be darker, and more menicing. Because to me they were much more spooky and scary in the book than in the film. In the movie they seemed kind of tame. I also wish they would have shown some of the feasts and gatherings they had during the story.
