Gandalf/Ian McKellan, Smeagol/Andy Serkis, Strider-Aragorn/Viggo Mortensen. Oh, and Galadriel/Cate Blanchett, she looked a lot like what I thought Galadriel was like. And Shadowfax - the horse was spot on.

I have to go with Shelob.
Which was the one character I was worried about looking totally phony!

Well, it was a bit gross, personally I liked the spider in the HP movie better.

galadriel looked good (no pun intended), and shelob was good, and the trolls were all cool, but the black riders looked exactly the way i picture them.

Faramir's failing to be his chivalrous self is another point of contentiousness.
In the book he says that he wouldn't pick it up, that is the Ring, if it lay by the roadside. But in the movie he falls way short of the book-self. |
