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.

Boromir was very well casted and costumed. He looked very similar to how I pictured him.

The outfit that ran the convention has extra signed autographed photos and I'm considering Gimli as I think his character was the most human.
