Shadowfax is IN

Saw an interview wih Ian McKellan [gee, did I spell it right?] on E! Entertainment [no, my girlfriend had it on.....lol] last night. He stated that in TT that Gandalf the White, with a younger look and shorter white beard, is like a "samurai, more of a commander, riding about on his magical horse Shadowfax...."

Okay, okay, okay! Shadowfax ain't magical, but he's bloody well in the films! So, the pics of the white horse at Helms Deep is not of the Arwen-bearing Asfaloth [breathes a sigh of relief] but of the Gandalf-bearing Shadowfax.

BTW, Sir Ian stated his website has had over 8.5 million hits in February. It was really neat to see his reaction....

"...[The Lord of the Rings] is to exemplify most clearly a recurrent theme: the place in 'world politics' of the unforeseen and unforeseeable acts of will, and deeds of virtue of the apparently small, ungreat, fogotten in the places of the Wise and Great (good as well as evil). A moral of the whole (after the primary symbolism of the Ring, as the will to mere power, seeking to make itself objective by physical force and mechanism, and so also inevitably by lies) is the obvious one that without the high and noble the simple and vulgar is utterly mean; and without the simple and ordinary the noble and heroic is meaningless." Letters of JRR Tolkien, page 160.
