Sauron the Eye

[Lord of Angmar]

I read this in an Oscar-related <I>Newsweek</I> interview with Peter Jackson:<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>[Interviewer:]<B>We won't pester you with a lot of geeky "Lord of the Rings" questions, but could you just explain one thing? Sauron is the bad guy. He's a disembodied evil eye, and he wants the ring. What's he going to do with a ring? He's an eye!</B> <P>[Jackson:][<I>Laughs</I>] Well, in the book there is a vague reference made to him slowly gaining some sort of physical form. So eventually he'll probably get a finger to put the ring on. He'll be an eye <I>and</I> a finger.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I just found that humorous. Quite a humorous explanation of something we've been debating on this site for some time.<P>-Angmar<P>P.S. Discuss.
