Treebeard's Eyes
Evenstar

Being the meticulous type when it comes to adapting a novel to the screen, I was mortified to find Treebeard doesn't have enormous blue-grey-green eyes. I may be mistaken but in a picture I saw of an ent, assumably Treebeard, there is no trademark feature. Who recalls from the books how their colour washes over and intensifies with every turn of event. I know it sounds ridiculous but to me it signified the essence of this bark-clad giant. It was his soul layed stark for all to see and marvel.
