Gollum and Sam are more interesting characters than I remembered. I wonder what diagnoses a psychologist would come up with for Gollum. But my favorite part is when Gimli breaks out into praise for the caverns at Helm’s Deep, so eloquently that Legolas is willing to go back and revisit them with Gimli, and I’m ready to go see them too.
