Of all the characters in LOTR, Treebeard is one that I had trouble picturing. But I think that toy is what he should look like. Yeah everything is amazingly like I thought it might be. They did a great job of bringing the book to life.
This magnificent movie trilogy is a perfect example of what can happen when a filmmaker(in this case, Peter Jackson)
truly loves and RESPECTS his source material. He's literally getting everything right!
Contrast this with how the Armani-suited blow-dried imbeciles who run the Hollywood machine usually do buisiness. The Sum of All Fears, Queen of the Damned, Godzilla, all of these are the result of the slapdash, sell-toys-be-PC-screw-the-fans attitude that pervades the American film capitol
