I will second cheekybeak on being unhappy the twins weren't included. And not being thrilled with Haldir. Craig Parker is a lovely person but makeup and costuming did him no favours.

Haha, Gabriel, don't worry, I have big plans for those Elven archers...although there's a little way to go between that point and where I currently am in the story ;)

I say go for it, Narya! And if you can make the Elves scenes at Helms Deep more effective, all the better. You know how we love the Elves.:)

Fair enough, cheeky. I wish they'd kept the twins too...! I am not a lover of film Haldir either, but I did like the army turning up.

If they needed elves I would rather they had kept the twins arrival.

Plus I like Legolas’ “Our people will not be able to come to aid us, wistfulness when Aragorn’s Dunedain arrive. It’s sad and true and sounds so homesick. I don’t like the idea of losing tha

And while the army did look dramatic and First age they did nothing with them. Like they are there...and then don’t even feature.

I’ll be the dissenting voice. I didn’t like it and kind of ignore that that ever happened. But I can’t stand film Haldir. Not even sure why!

mention - and also because some of the plot points of that fic hang a little bit on the movie verse anyway. Coming across such a strong negative reaction gave me pause.

Me too, Nelya. Thanks for the input, guys :) asking because I recently came across someone who *hated* it. For a long time I've been planning on including it in Three, for the reasons you guys m

It made me think of the first Age and the Last Alliance--an army of Elves like that. I didn't mind that change.

I like it too - I was watching it last night and it gave me the shivers, seeing them all march in like that. I agree, it was like seeing an echo of the Elves in their glory days.

Passed, and it seemed like an echo of it. (Mind you, Thranduil and Lothlóren both had to fight)

Well, I liked it because it was mire Elves, lol. I don’t mind not, I can read LOTR and not care that they weren’t there, but I rather enjoyed it because the age of the Elves going to war had passe

Straw poll time - Tolkien fans, how do you feel about the Elves turning up at Helm's Deep in the film of The Two Towers? (Asking for reasons...)

I agree, Spiced. Definitely had enough of it now. Hope you're somewhere cosy and warm inside, Nelya!

Time for the snow to go :( What a strange winter it’s been — well, for us, we never usually have snow and this year 3 times :/

Glad to hear the cat's bin-diving hobby has not resulted in catastrophe, Narya (boom boom)!
