I accidentally deleted my James Cosmo comment while I was editing my post. Too late to go back now. But I agree full-heartedly with you. I adore the character of Theoden in the book. The idea of an old man possessing the same fire and physical authority as the younger characters around him is fascinating to me, and it solidifies Theoden as a character of legend. PJ cast the role much younger than what Tolkien had written for the character (he was 70-71 years old during the time of the LoTR). And the fact that they gave Bernard Hill blonde hair with an off-color goatee made things worse for me. I like my Theoden old, tall, white-haired, and with a long, thick white beard.
