Re: Book characters who you pictured very differently from the movie portrayal

I agree with the conclusion, but not with the justification. I don't think elvish appearances have that much to do with genetics apart from hair/eye color.

IDK, wasn't Luthien the most beautiful elf in the history of everything precisely because a) her mother was a Maia (basically a frickin' angel) and b) her dad was so gorgeous a frickin' angel fell in love with him and actually spent several decades just standing and staring at him going "holy fuck he is so gorgeous"? Also, Galadriel is one of the most beautiful elf women ever as well, and her brother Finrod is described as the fairest of all the Noldor princes. I think genetics certainly has some input into beauty levels.

I think I like this better than Tolkiens version. LOL

ayrt

But that pretty much is Tolkien's version. He just didn't word it quite like that.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. In the book, Arwen is directly compared to her father and called beautiful in the same breath. That's why I think he's beautiful too.

The direct quote is, "In the middle of the table, against the woven cloths upon the wall, there was a chair under a canopy, and there sat a lady fair to look upon, and so like was she in form of womanhood to Elrond that Frodo guessed that she was one of his close kindred. Young she was and yet not so. The braids of her dark hair were touched by no frost, her white arms and clear face were flawless and smooth, and the light of stars was in her bright eyes, grey as a cloudless night; yet queenly she looked, and thought and knowledge were in her glance, as of one who has known many things that the years bring."
