I've thought about that before too. But then I figured that if I knew more about Gandalf, he wouldn't be the mysterious badass mofowizard that he is. |
Strategy.

You should read the Silmarillion if you want to know more about some of the characters in LOTR...it describes Sauron's boss Morgoth and his fall from 'heaven'.
He's one mean son of a bitch. |

no, i want the narrative to be able to speak for itself. i dont want my own opinion clouding the story or the author's intent. when it comes to fantasy i want to KNOW everything, not have to make up my own mind about what it means. i hate stuff like that, in my genre of choice at least. i want complete knowledge of how awesome a character is, i dont want the "hints" of awesomeness. like i said, i find it an often-used device that im just not a fan of. if i wanted to make up my own mind to what something means, i'd write the ing novel myself.
and if none of these concerns were important, tolkien wouldn't have written the silmarillion. all im saying is that less countyside fixation and more detail/history like we see in the silmarillion would have made the original trilogy a much more enjoyable experience for me. |

As he's more or less an angel (the most powerful one), I'm not sure he'd have need for a dick...didn't stop him ing that poor elf over though. |

Haha, I love when books leave a good bit of mystery.
Oh, and Tolkien loves the green because he was a conservative environmentalist type (I know, sounds like an oxymoron these days, but not back then) who hated technology and loved nature and the "natural order" of human hierarchy such as aristocracy and princes. He was a Romantic, like lots of conservatives of the time, sort of an English fantasy-writer version of the American conservative Russell Kirk. |
