A question about Sauron's role in the Hobbit...possible spoilers
|
Can't Post
|
|
I'm a huge fan of the Hobbit book, but dont know much about the events prior to it.
If the Necromancer is indeed Sauron (and apparently will be shown as such in The Hobbit's sub-plot), could anyone explain to me what exactly happens to him to transform him from a person-like being to the eye that we see in the LOTR movies?
I would love a thorough explanation of this if anyone could help me :)

Perhaps a black actor might be cast but in this case it is more like burnt toast black.

It's up to the filmmakers to explain that one.

He is no longer capable of assuming a "fair form".

Not hiding: Sauron seems to have preferred his fortress over campaigns

There indeed are a number of similarities between Sauron and Saruman

The films never say that Sauron is only the manifested Eye.

I suspect that there will be more of a "fall" in the Hobbit than in the books...
