Oh noes

There has been quite the hubbub around
the original female character "Tauriel"
in the upcoming Hobbit films.  I have opinions, my main one being that there's not yet enough info to have a fixed opinion one way or another.  I also have other opinions.  I sense an essay coming on, someday when I have time.

I'm prepared to give them the chance to demonstrate this was a good idea, myself. As you say, too soon to express a fixed opinion.

Also, having carefully read the bit in the LOTR preface about the transmission of the Red Book of Westmarch and its dodgy copies and Gondorian 'corrections', I am quite happy to believe there are several versions of the story with aspects of canonical truth! :-D
