Excellent, I knew that would get your attention. The only thread I could find dedicated to the best part!!! of the movies was this one on <A HREF="http://forum.barrowdowns.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=4&t=001371" TARGET=_blank>Which character has the coolest costume?</A>The costumes and makeup in these movies are absolutely amazing, no matter which way you look at it. I personally love the way that Aragorn's hands are dirty after being in the wilderness, and the only time you see pressed, freshly laundered costumes is when this fits into the plot (e.g. Rivendell).The Easterlings in TTT really threw me, though. I've had their costumes explained since, and appreciate them a little more, but I'd have to say they were not what I was expecting! How did the costumes stand up to everyone else's expectations?Oh, two more things before you start: <UL TYPE=SQUARE><LI>Nazgûl = *drool* wow so good<LI>Gollum's loincloth - how was it not torn off on a shrub? (eeeuyucch!)</UL>
