apparently he did more outside the main LOTR storyline... including prophesize that the witch-king (Nazgul leader) would get owned sometime | ||

And then when he's across the river and the wraiths are about to follow, Gandalf/Elrond make it rise and wash them away, in the shape of a bunch of white horses.. (ie the water rises and visual illusion or something made it look like white horses) Yeah, something like that. as far as i know, in the book (which is more important than the movie), Frodo was saved by Elrond, but, in the movie, his part was given to Arwen (you know, the producers had to put her on something cause she was Liz Tyler and was getting a lot of $$  , although, her part in the book is pretty much meaningless).SS of the horse part (sorry the shitty quality, i SS'ed them from my iPod version): ![[image loading]](http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/5646/lotr2fb3.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/3838/lotr1hf7.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/9231/lotr3fs6.jpg) | ||

Yeah, you are right. I think elrond did it, at least he's the one who casted the enchantement on the river. And wtf 7 times ? I read them 2 time and that a lot I think. | ||

But in the book it was gandalf and that male elf who isn't even in the movies whose name starts with G (can't remember it) who were on the other side of the river. IIRC, the nazgul couldn't pass into rivendell, so the stream fucked their couch, and gandalf just added the horses because hes fuckin gandalf, and he can do that. And seeing as Nazgul's name is also from that movie (hell, from that SCENE), i'd say its pretty accurate (its what I thought of the first time I saw the banner too). | ||

Glorfindel I think was his name ;> EDIT: Ah, someone already mentioned that | ||

Books like "The Catcher in the Rye," "Huck Finn," and so on were mandatory.ZOMG TEH ILLITERATES? I thought reading LOTR was obligatory in the english / american schools. Guess I'm wrong, but it still surprises me that people haven't read one of the most remarkable works in literature. (Not the best, but certainly one of the most remarkable) | ||
