Actually, the only thing I disliked in the "Fellowship..." was the troll. First, it was presented more like a mindless beast, while the trolls are quite reasonable creatures, although evil - as presented in "The Hobbit". Second, the animation was quite poor IMHO. I hope the animation of Gollum is better. On the other hand I like the look of Balrog - a fearful combination of flames and smoke. I definitely agree with you about the human characters. I've been particularly impressed with Aragorn, Boromir and Saruman (great job from Christopher Lee - he really knows how to play evil characters - I also enjoy his play as Count Dooku in the "Star Wars - Episode 2: Attack of the Clones"; his voice is stunning). Also battle scenes in the "Fellowship..." were gorgeous (my favourite 3 moments are: Legolas sticking his arrow into the eye of an Uruk-hai, then pulling it out and firing it with his bow into the head of another Uruk-hai; the duel between Aragorn and the Uruk-hai commander; the bravery of Boromir at his end). I'm looking forward to seeing battles in the "Two Towers" - especially the battle of the Helm's Deep. Regards Artur --------------r-e-k-l-a-m-a----------------- Super tanie kwatery narciarskie.
