@macfalk I will say one word to you: Taurìel. More seriously, a couple of weeks ago I happen to raise the subject of LOTR with someone and asked him simply: do you know Gandalf? he said to me: Yeah he's a film character. I was shocked. But these kinds of instances are very common, I don't doubt it. And it will inscrease with The Hobbit. The films, perhaps not in purpose, overshadow Tolkien's work. Lots people discover Middle-Earth with the movies ( I am one of them) but to to some it became the references of it. The film's influence keep getting broader.
