Well... [In reply to] Can't Post
I really cannot stand the German need for synchs in general anymore - even if they are quite decently done for movies.

But after having seen the teaser of the White Council scene first in English and then in German in the actual movie... meh.

I will give to them that they found a great new Gandalf voice since Achim Höppner died and that Galadriel's voice is almost more "out-of-the-world" to Blanchett's.

But especially the Germanised names like Thorin put me off.

(For explanation: They did not leave the English "th" in German but the German "t". They did the same with Minas Tirith or Orthanc. Mithrandir is the only "th" they left. Since it was so important to Tolkien that those names had a specific linguistic origin, they should have been left as they were in the German audio book.)
