Some thing kinda same happend to me at the first time reading the book.
Don't-imagine/compare-the-movies-to-the-books! It totaly ruins it! Look at illustrations of people in the internet (John whowe
) that helps alot. If you can watch the animated LOTR film especially the first one, it's bad but it's a lot more closer to the books (characters and more..).
-It gives you a whal new story. The books and movies-are-not-the-same!
Well, maybe i'm crazy lol.
