![]() Long story short, none of the things that happened were Hurin's fault. He was a great hero. His son let him down but a lot of that was Morgoth's doing, too. How does one go 30 years between Silmarillion readings? I can't go a week without reading or listening to some part of it. I admire your self control.

It was actually quite comical, IMO, until the dope decided to fall into a ravine.

Gildor is actually the reason why I sort of dislike all Elves. I hated Gildor on my first LOTR reading and still dislike him (though now I understand his reasons better). After reading Silm, I have mellowed towards Elves in general, but there are some LOTR ones that I still can't stand.
And... Did I mention Galadriel? Now making her play Saeros would be fun. ![]() ![]() I remember I read a fanfic where Khamul took Lorien and had Galadriel's head shaved... A balm to my nazgul heart ![]() |

That's the root of Feanor's problems. He can't believe it's not butter!

![]() My definition of 'great hero' doesn't overlap with medieval romance a lot. It's probably a style issue. ![]() I know. I'm a complete apostate. I prefer 'strict constructionist',myself. ![]()

![]() *cough* ![]() *sputter* ![]() *gets out wood to burn the heretic* ![]() *gets splinter* Owww! ![]() Well, maybe not. I'll let her be. ![]() It is a matter of taste, though. I think The Silmarillion is one of those books you either love, or it's torture to get through. I consider myself lucky to be among the former. ![]()

I am sincerely touched by your restraint. Thanks.
![]() Much of what interests me in the material has to do with specifically literary issues, and I find those subsumed by the emotional connections people make, which is great. Literature should move us, and this does. ![]()
