I actually feel closer to the Company than the Fellowship

Maybe it's because I like the dwarves better than the members of the Fellowship, Frodo included. Well, too, we have 13 characters to present here, not just 9. I read that PJ intends to introduce them gradually, not all at once in the first film. So I think we will be getting more individual characteristics of other dwarves as the films progress. I feel very invested in Thorin, Fili, Kili, Bofur and Baliln at this point. Dwalin is pretty well drawn here too, but I just don't relate to the kick-a** type I guess. In the Fellowship there are only several major characters, and they each get their own screen time by way of introduction. That just wouldn't work for 13 dwarves, and the story itself would have had to have been changed radically from the book. So all in all, I don't feel a lack of character development at all here. (And like someone else stated earlier, I'd much rather hang with the dwarves than with the Fellowhip folk!)

Legolas, Gimli and Boromir all get nice character moments at the Council of Elrond

Not sure it's a fair comparison...

While Legolas is far more enchanting to behold, I found Balin and Bofur to be

The Fellowship may be more immediately interesting, but the Company is sure interesting enough
